1. What is Melatonin Neurim and what is it used for
The active substance of Melatonin Neurim, melatonin, belongs to a group of natural hormones
produced by the body.
Melatonin Neurim is used alone for the short-term treatment of primary insomnia
(persistent difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, or poor sleep quality),
in patients aged 55 years and over. “Primary” means that no cause has been identified for the insomnia,
including a medical, mental or environmental cause.
2. What you need to know before taking Melatonin Neurim
Do not take Melatonin Neurim
- if you are allergic to melatonin or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Melatonin Neurim.
- if you have liver or kidney problems. Studies have not been conducted on the use of Melatonin Neurim in people with liver or kidney diseases; talk to your doctor before taking Melatonin Neurim, as its use is not recommended.
- if your doctor has told you that you have an intolerance to certain sugars.
- if you have been told that you suffer from an autoimmune disease (in which the body is “attacked” by its own immune defenses). Studies have not been conducted on Melatonin Neurim in people with autoimmune diseases, therefore talk to your doctor before taking Melatonin Neurim, as its use is not recommended.
- Melatonin Neurim may cause drowsiness; be careful if you experience drowsiness, as this may impair your ability to perform activities such as driving.
