Our assessment

However, we must be clear: the data provided does not contain specific information on melatonin itself. The available ingredient data is for calcium, not melatonin. For this product, the core mechanism and benefits are not described in the provided data. Data not available regarding melatonin's effect on sleep from the provided sources.
How it works
Based on the data provided for the ingredient calcium, it supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation, which includes muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. This information does not apply to melatonin. For melatonin’s specific mechanism, data not available from the provided sources.
Safety profile
The total adverse event reports for all supplements in the FDA data is 592,059, but this figure is not specific to melatonin or this product [FDA data].

For calcium, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer, and high blood levels can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, and abnormal heart rhythms [NIH ODS].
