Melatonin 3mg

[jtlavs]

Hello. Since my first cdiff infection in January, I have had no relapse/reoccurrence and continue to be very conservative about introducing anything new into my digestive track. At this point in the pandemic, my sleep quality is poor and my physician recommended trying a 3mg dose of melatonin. [He is aware of the prior cdiff infection.] Does anyone managing cdiff have experience with taking melatonin 3mg? I have been unable to find anything definitive online. Thank you.

I have taken melatonin for years - 10 mg - without a reoccurrence of c diff. It is not 100 percent effective for me but is helpful. I haven’t read anything that links it with c diff. Do Follow your doc’s instructions, however, as we are not in the medical field.

Melatonin is DEFINITELY NOT linked to Cdiff.

President Trump was on Melatonin when he had Corina. Just sayin’

I have been on Melatonin (10mg) for years. I have been battling C diff since June. I have failed on 2 rounds of Vanco and 1 of Dificid and am currently on a long taper of Vanco and neither my GI (who has worked with OpenBiome for years) nor my ID have recommended stopping Melatonin. I hope it will grow some hair but I will not hold my breath!
Good luck all
