How does Diphenhydramine compare to melatonin in managing sleep disorders, and which is more effective for improving sleep onset and duration?
Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine with sedative effects, often effective for sleep onset but may cause dependency and hangover effects. Melatonin, a hormone, regulates sleep cycles naturally and is safer for long-term use but may be less effective in some individuals for immediate sleep onset.
