Subject: melatonin question
             Our vet has 2 of our fuzzies on melatonin for adrenal 
                  disease.  I have 2 questions:  our vet told us that the 8 or 9 
                  hours after sunrise doesn't matter, it's that you give it 
                  consistently at the same time every day.  Is this valid? 
                  (Because if so, I would like to give their dosage in the 
                  morning just for convenience.)  Also he wondered at the 1 mg 
                  dosage and if anyone has tried to give 1/2 a mg, or whatever. 
                  Though it works, he thought it seems a lot. Any imput on that?
                  Thanks so much!
