    Just fyi - watch out for him raising the dose of the “melatonin” if it isn’t working. As vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin and taken too much or too often can result in toxicity.

    The melatonin would just get less effective with overuse and potentially cause rebound insomnia

        What I’m saying is it might be safer to just allow him to abuse the melatonin than take the vitamin D unknowingly and risk overdose. It can also be cumulative if he’s taking it for a while.

        Only 3 is fine if that’s all there is and then it’s finished. But just to be aware that they’re not a safe placebo like a sugar pill especially when someone takes too many
