Melatonin is cataloged as a food supplement product under UK food law, not as a licensed medicine. It has not been assessed by the MHRA and is not intended to treat or prevent any disease.

Pre-market effectiveness review does not apply to food supplements the way it does to licensed medicines, so review the label and ask a clinician if anything is unclear. Ingredients and dosing on the label are set by the manufacturer, not verified by the MHRA, so consistency between packs can vary.
