I know someone who has a daughter who was having several issues--sick alot so she got her tonsil and adenoids taken out. When they did that surgery, they discovered she had had severe sleep apnea--which the surgery remedied. They also discovered she had issues with her immune system. Well not sleeping is not good for the immune system and she still wasn't sleeping well, so they gave her melatonin. They had a different child. It has just been awesome for them. And her immune system issues have decreased quite a bit. She has a younger child with possible ADHD issues and they sometimes use it with him and it works fine. There are times when medication is ok. And for little bodies, sleep is a big deal.
