Default Can I take meletonin to help sleep if I am taking 20 mg's of prozac every morning?

I wasn't sure if the two had any interaction issues if I take one in the morning and the other near bedtime if needed. Any help would be really appreciated.

There shouldn't be any problem with prozac and melatonin at all. God bless.

Default I don't forsee a problem, honestly

I don't think there would be any problems. They do two completely different things in the body so there should be no be no compatibility problems. I will let you know that some people suggest melatonin for a short term fix only though, that you aren't supposed to use it all the time. I have used melatonin before in the past but noticed that I built up a tolerance to it after a while.
