Question MELATONIN

Just wondering, when Melatonin first came on the market it was claimed, among other things, to help sleep, prelong life(!), prevent cancer, improve libido etc. etc. I believe the UK CAA wrote a cautionary note to pilots, possibly the FAA did too? Don't know if you can even buy it here in Australia but as one who still suffers a bad sleep pattern from long-haul flying after six months on the ground I was wondering if it was now approved by aviation medics and at what dose?
Any references very welcome. Cheers.
