The review assesses the effects of melatonin on preoperative and postoperative anxiety in adults compared to placebo and benzodiazepines. Results indicate that melatonin likely reduces preoperative anxiety but has a smaller effect on postoperative anxiety, with no significant difference when compared to benzodiazepines. Overall, melatonin may serve as an effective alternative to traditional anxiolytics with fewer cognitive side effects.
