I will ship out tomorrow. Will Melatonin make me fail at MEPS?

While I can't provide an official answer to this, I feel that it is highly unlikely to cause an issue. Its an over-the-counter sleep-aid, not a controlled substance.

Melatonin is a hormone that is naturally produced by the body. You actually ingest melatonin with a lot of foods you eat everyday. It's not a drug of abuse, so it won't be tested for.

lol No. It is not controlled substance that is on any kind of watch list or has a test to detect it. You will go in, pee in a cup, give up some hair and unless you are taking an illegal drug, pass with no problems and ship for basic sometime later.

Melatonin is not on the list of drugs that you are being tested for.
