==5-HTP== * Probably best to avoid. Maybe ok short term when off cycling Rhodila? "[https://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/9z9a81/5htp_dopamine_depletion/ea7bkc8/ Taking 5-HTP, without dopamine precursors like tyrosine, for months will lead to an imbalance. Just cut the 5-HTP out or start adding in something like tyrosine on an empty stomach.]" "Tyrosine does not lead to a depletion issue like 5-HTP can. Just be sure to also take Tyrosine when you plan on using 5-HTP for an extended period." "[https://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/dwa8k7/5htp_has_nearly_cured_my_anhedonia_concentration/f7hpakt/ Moreover, you want to always pair 5-HTP with a dopamine decarboxylase inhibitor like green tea extract (EGCG) so that serotonin doesn't build up in the periphery and cause heart valve issues.]", "[https://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/dwa8k7/5htp_has_nearly_cured_my_anhedonia_concentration/f7j1bq8/ green tea extract even in fairly small doses has been strongly linked with hepatotoxicity including over 20 cases of acute liver failure in Australia alone.]" "In addition, '''5-HTP should not be used with antidepressants such as SSRIs and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs)''' because of its known potential to cause serotonin syndrome." "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbnaYQJX9f4&t=898s Don't use 5HTP, at least not for long periods, use L-Tryptophan]"
