5-HTP is a chemical compound produced in the body from L-Tryptophan, which supports the mitigation of depression symptoms. 5-HTP increases the production of neurotransmitter serotonin, influencing the course of those diseases where brain produces too little serotonin. Melatonin is produced from serotonin and thus 5-HTP can also help regulate the sleep-wake cycles.
150-800mg of 5-htp can be used over a period of 2-6 weeks for depression. 5-HTP should always be taken without any other antidepressant or serotonin boosting medicine.
400mg of 5-HTP is safe to consume within a period of 1 year.
The most common side-effects include nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, stomach pains, diarrhea, muscle weakness, and sexual problems. Large amounts of 5-HTP around 6-10g are potentially dangerous, as it may cause heavy stomach problems and spasms. Taking 5-HTP with other serotonin boosting medication can lead to serotonin buildup which can be harmful: causing heart problems, seizure and vomiting. Do not take 5-HTP if you are taking: Sedative medications (CNS depressants), Carbidopa or other medications that are increasing serotonin.
