Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I tried this with my son who has OCD. It made him too sleepy and unable to function for school work. I probably could have lessened the dose, but I chose to use theanine and inositol instead. He takes inositol daily and theanine when he has stressful times. - Julee http://discoveringnathan.blogspot.com From: AutismBehaviorProblems [mailto:AutismBehaviorProblems ] On Behalf Of Eve Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2008 8:00 PM To: AutismBehaviorProblems Subject: 5 htp has anyone used this supplement on their child?

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 We have been giving 50mg 5-HTP morning an with dinner for over a year as part of my son’s mood stabilizing supplements. It is a precursor to Tryptophan, and helps the body calm. It does not make him sleepy, just calmer.
