Respiratory symptoms in young children can be confusing and difficult to diagnose. Coughs, wheezes, and other breathing issues often overlap, and treatments can vary.

⚠️Safety advisory – Safety concerns over imported counterfeit melatonin products⚠️

We are issuing an updated safety advisory regarding imported counterfeit unregistered melatonin products.

Laboratory testing of several imported unregistered melatonin products has confirmed they are counterfeit under the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989.

The results indicate significant discrepancies in the actual melatonin content compared to the labelled amounts. One product contained more than 400% of the labelled content and another containing no melatonin at all.

This variability in melatonin content raises serious safety concerns for consumers, including the risk of accidental overdose and hospitalisation, especially in children.

Melatonin is a prescription-only medicine in Australia, except in specific circumstances for adults.

Parents are strongly encouraged to consult their child’s treating medical practitioner regarding the use of melatonin, especially for children with seizure disorders as it may increase seizure frequency.

Melatonin products taken without appropriate medical oversight can cause serious side effects including accidental overdose and hospitalisation, especially in children.

Please sign and share this petition to support parents of children that require lifesaving medication at schools. School staff are trained to give lifesaving asthma, epilepsy and anaphylaxis medication at school, however students requiring a Hydrocortisone injection have to wait until a parent or an ambulance arrives to administer this medication. Imagine having to stand by and wait for an ambulance or parent to administer an epi-pen. Adrenal crisis is as urgent as anaphylaxis. Parents and caregivers can be trained to give this injection, why not school first aid officers?
