Melatonin may ease autistic children's sleep troubles
A new study suggests that melatonin is safe for long-term use in autistic children who have difficulty sleeping. The study tracked the effects of melatonin on autistic children over a two-year period and found that it can improve sleep and overall quality of life. The study also addressed concerns about the hormones long-term safety, particularly in regard to puberty, and found that melatonin does not interfere with puberty. The study adds to the growing evidence that melatonin is safe and effective for children with autism. However, it is important to have a regulated version of melatonin in the U.S. that is backed by data, as the current over-the-counter supplements vary in quality and dosage.

Neurim Pharmaceuticals Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for Slenyto (Pediatric Prolonged-Release Melatonin) for the Treatment of Insomnia in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Neurim Pharmaceuticals has received a positive opinion from the CHMP for its pediatric prolonged-release melatonin coated tablets formulation, Slenyto, for the treatment of children and adolescents with ASD and/or Smith-Magenis Syndrome who suffer from insomnia. The recommendation is based on comprehensive data demonstrating the efficacy and safety of Slenyto in addressing the unmet need for ASD children with impaired sleep. If approved, Slenyto would be the only approved medicinal product for sleep disorders in pediatric ASD patients. Insomnia disproportionately affects children with ASD, and currently, there is no approved treatment for insomnia in this population.
