What does it contain?

Are there any potential drug interactions?
Refrain from using 5-HTP if you are already taking medications for depression, such as Prozac, or other serotonin-altering drugs like Tramadol. Prior to use, consult your doctor if you are taking any other medications or supplements. Excessive serotonin levels due to overdose or drug interactions could lead to severe side effects, including heart issues, shivering, and anxiety.
What are the possible side effects?
5-HTP may lead to heartburn, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, drowsiness, sexual problems, and muscle issues.

Additionally, individuals with bipolar disorder should be cautious, as it may trigger manic episodes.
