There are some brands of melatonin that are time released. When I take ordinary melatonin, my nose gets itchy and that keeps me awake, but I don't notice anything with the time released. The time released seems more like what the body experiences - not a sudden surge as with quick release tablets.
(sorry, probably not a help if you are in the UK and your friend has already bought the melatonin.)
