Council for Responsible Nutrition recommends improved labeling and child-resistant packaging for melatonin due to increased child ER visits.

The Council for Responsible Nutrition recommends melatonin manufacturers improve labeling and packaging standards due to a spike in child ER visits caused by accidental ingestion of the sleep aid. New guidelines encourage child-resistant packaging for melatonin products, clearer labeling about appropriate usage conditions, and warnings about possible choking hazards for products designed for children under 4 years old.
