Description
5-HTP is primarily used to support mood, as it is able to increase serotonin levels. Its comparison to various tricyclic antidepressants has shown that it is as effective and faster acting than the latter, with fewer side effects. Since serotonin and melatonin are involved in the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle, 5-HTP also improves sleep quality. In addition, research attributes to 5-HTP a role in reducing the symptoms of fibromyalgia and the frequency of migraines. Studies in Spain and Italy have found that 5-HTP is comparable to the drug methysergide in relieving migraine symptoms (over 70% in both groups) with fewer side effects. Patients with fibromyalgia have been found to have low serotonin levels and their symptoms decreased with the use of tricyclic and SSRI antidepressants. Numerous clinical trials of 5-HTP have also confirmed significant improvement in symptoms, including pain, morning stiffness, nervousness and fatigue.
AOR's 5-HTP is a natural compound extracted from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia and is available in two dose sizes to cover a wide range of dosing options, adaptable to individual needs.
Dosage
Adults: Take one to two capsules three times daily with food for mood stabilization, or two capsules three to four times daily with food for relief of fibromyalgia symptoms. Start by taking a dose of 50 to 100 mg for 2 to 3 times a day, then gradually increase the dose over 2 weeks to avoid possible gastrointestinal discomfort. Take for at least 1 week to see the beneficial effects on mood and at least 2 weeks for the relief of fibromyalgia symptoms.
