Overview

Brief Summary

This will be a prospective, double blinded, randomized, controlled pilot study to determine if there is any correlation between melatonin administration and proteinuria.

Detailed Description

Investigators plan to enroll up to 100 eligible participants in this pilot trial with 50 participants randomized to receive melatonin and 50 patients randomized to receive a placebo. Participants will be randomized on a rolling basis; meaning, once participants agree to enroll in the study, the participant will be placed randomly into either group.
