I don't know f this applies to anybody but I found a website that discusses interaction of melatonin with antidepressants. Basically that if you take melatonin it could decrease the effectiveness of a antidepressant.

Where is everyone getting the Renew vitamins? I saw a website with a picture of them, but its just a front page and says "coming soon". I loved the good days and good nights (I think they were called) vitamins available at grocery store a few years ago, but it doesn't seem like those are still around.
It would be great to try these new ones! I just can't figure out where to buy.

mosaic: Thanks for the article about melatonin !
I don't trust asking a pharmacist about over the counter medications and interactions.
My mom asked her pharmacist recently about an over the counter medication and the
pharmacist said it would be okay for my mom to take the over the counter medication.Not true !
My mom has heart problems and the over the counter medication may have affected her
pulse and blood pressure. My mom even gave the pharmacist a list of the prescription
medications that she was currently taking.
My advice to all: don't ask your pharmacist about drug interactions.
