time release melatonin????? anyone's children on this?

stacey1471

Hi, 

My little man has been on regular melatonin for over a year now for some serious sleep issues. 

Since having it he now falls to sleep without to many issues so long as routine is strict. However he still regularly wakes through the night to eat (another big issues.. Food)

Anyway I have heard of the 'time release' melatonin and wondered if anyone children take it as our pead won't perscribe the time release one but does the regular. Says he is not licenced for it????? 

Thought about getting it myself?  Thought I'd seek info first. 

Sorry to ramble.

  • My little fella is nearly 5 and he was on slow release melatonin but it didn't work to keep him asleep. It just helped put him to sleep quicker and he still woke up after a few hours. Because of this our pediatrician changed him to quick release which works in the same way so unfortunately we still have no sleep solution!!!!! X
