Melatonin is over the counter in countries like us, it is prescription drug in india. For short term like few days you can take, on longer run if prescribed you need to consult a psychiatrist, as it needs to be monitored for liver function test, etc. It can cause mild constipation, as a common side effect. Good luck.
