There is an approved form of pharmaceutical melatonin in the UK (Circadin, 2mg modified release), but it's only licensed for use in adults aged over 55.

Any doctor can prescribe it off-label if they wish, although they might be hesitant in the non-insomniac population due to the relatively high cost (>50p per 2mg dose)
