Does Melatonin Have A Bad Effect On Constipation?
I am taking morphine, Neurontin and Loracet for degenerative disk disease and pain relief. I also suffer from mild insomnia, i.e. 1-2 mg nightly of Melatonin. I am concerned about how the Melatonin is interacting, especially with my constipation problem. Thank you for you help.
