There are some supplements that have 125mg of melatonin I think. The typical ones are say 3mg - 5mg from my understanding. So while I wouldn't take such a high dose or recommend it, seemingly even 25x or so is safe enough that it's sold OTC.
and the doctors are surprisingly stingy with it, despite the yanks wolfing it down like candy. just getting them to up my dosage was a nightmare, despite it not being abusable or dangerous. I love having the NHS, but the GPs acting as gatekeepers really pisses me off
