If you take melatonin too late, the best way to combat it for me was to sleep with the lights on. You'll feel less crappy that way. That way your body isn't also releasing a lot of natural melatonin to the stuff you took. Your body does that in darkness. TBH, I used to do this when I realized I'd be sleeping less than 5 hours. Less groggy that way.

That's not the melatonin.
