Is it ok to take melatonin after this?

If I took hydroxyzine 25 mg at 6:00 pm yesterday is it ok for me to take melatonin now? Or should I wait?

Melatonin is a natural hormone our bodies create, so you should be fine since your body will be able to regulate its metabolism. I would recommend no more than 10mg. Ursula R. Vazquez
No it is not due to adverse effects of sedation especially if the individual is over 65. Melody Faulkner, RN, MSN
