Melatonin Side Effect #9: Dizziness & Nausea

Melatonin, when taken at high doses, can cause reactions similar to motion sickness in people who are sensitive to the drug. Two of the most commonly associated symptoms of this are dizziness and nausea.

The first thing that someone might consider for alleviating nausea and dizziness is gravol, but this isn’t a good idea if you’re using melatonin because gravol has such a sedating effect. The combination of the two can lead to excessive sleepiness and can put you at risk of oversleeping or feeling groggy the next day.
