In reply to 5-htp to boost serotonin, posted by Marty mc Fly on July 15, 2004, at 19:38:47
> After some research I decided to use 5-htp as an anti-poopout agent for clomipramine to boost some extra serotonin. I started with 100 mg and worked my way up to 300 mg in 3 divided doses of 100 mg over the day. The only effect I have after 2 months of consistent use is severe nausea every day, even with the divided dose and no antidepressant effect whatsoever.
> I have taken in with and without vitamine B6 and magnesium, 3 hours after a meal, with orange juice.

> Are there ways to improve effectiveness of 5-htp or should I use another agent to increase effectiveness of clomipramine ?

>What is your diagnosis? How much clomipramine are you taking & how are it's effects & side effects?
I don't know anything about 5-htp, you might have more luck in the alternate board.
