5-HTP Plus is a synergistic formula of 5-hydroxytryptophan (100 mg) and vitamin B6 (20 mg) per serving for supporting overall neurotransmitter metabolism by providing precursors of serotonin. 5-HTP readily enters the blood–brain barrier; however, conversion into serotonin requires the cofactor vitamin B6, which is included in this formula. 5-HTP Plus may be used during the day to support a healthy mood and normal appetite, or it may be used at bedtime to support sleep.
Warning: Not recommended for use by pregnant or lactating women, or by those taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO) medications.
