I don’t think I’ve used this brand but I have used 5-HTP off and on for years. I used to take 50mg in the morning. I’ve heard 100mg can be a bit much. Now I take a 200mg time-release one. I initially tried it as an appetite suppressant (since I’m always trying to lose that 5 extra pounds). And I figured my mood could always take some enhancing. I have found that it really does help my mood, especially when I’m very stressed at work. No side effects really except if I take it too late in the day I find that it makes my dreams more ‘vivid’ which I don’t really like. Taking them in the morning seems to minimize that.
