Doctors Best 5-HTP - 60 x 100mg Capsules

What is 5-HTP?

The neurotransmitter, 5-hydroxy-tryptophan (5-HTP) is a compound created in the body which is used to regulate serotonin levels in brain and central nervous system. 5- HTP may help support and maintain a balanced and relaxed outlook on life. 5 HTP may also help support healthy weight management and healthy sleeping patterns.

Doctor's Best 5-HTP Works

Doctor's Best 5-HTP is derived from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant. Supplementing with Griffonia Seed may help support and maintain a balanced and relaxed outlook on life. It may also help support healthy weight management.

Maintain Healthy Sleep Patterns

Taking 5-HTP in the evening prior to bedtime may help maintain and support the quality of your sleep patterns.

5-HTP - Also an antioxidant

5-HTP appears to work as a free radical scavenger (antioxidant). This may help to support and maintain immune function and health in general.

Question:

Q.

Can I take 5-HTP alongside my prescribed antidepressants?

A.

5-HTP should not be taken with antidepressants, weight-control drugs or other serotonin-modifying agents including Carbidopa, Carbidopa/Levodopa, Citalopram, Escitalopram, Fluoxetine, Fluvoxamine, Paroxetine, Selegiline, Sertraline, Sibutramine, Sumatriptan, Tramadol, Venlafaxine, Zolmitriptan, Zolpidem.

Q.

I know that St John's Wort is not recommended for women taking the contraceptive pill so I just wanted to ask the same question regarding 5HTP.

A.

There are no known contraindications at this time, however, 5HTP is not as well researched as supplements such as St John's Wort so we would always advise caution.

Q.

Does this product interact with Seroxat or Dianette?

A.

There are contraindications between 5-HTP and pharmaceutical anti-depressants including Paroxetine (also known as Paxil or Seroxat). It is not recommended you take 5-HTP in conjunction with any of the above or any other serotonin modifying agent. Click here for further information about 5-HTP
