Usage Take 1 to 2 capsules once or twice daily with a glass of water or fruit juice, preferably on an empty stomach. If so desired, take 30 to 60 before going to sleep.
Ingredients 5-HTP (from Griffonia simplicifolia) 50 mg, microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin (capsule), modified cellulose gum, silicon dioxide and magnesium stearate.
Warning Excess 5-HTP, especially when administered with vitamin B6, causes the liver to metabolize 5-HTP into serotonin, which may result in heart valve damage or disease (cardiac fibrosis). When combined with an MAOi or SSRI, 5-HTP can cause acute serotonin syndrome.
