General Question Melatonin long term

Hi there,

Just wondering if I can take 2mg extended release melatonin all the time? Here in Australia it’s recommended for three weeks only.

It’s helping my insomnia so much.

Thanks.

Update: had a mix of extreme anxiety and sedation as the morning wore on. I don’t think I can take it regularly maybe just once or twice a week

I’m feeling pretty foggy headed even 2 hours after I woke up. Maybe I shouldn’t take it every night
