Contrary to the previous misinformed, and irresponsible answer (which I've taken the liberty of editing out), it is not recommended that you take two drugs that increase the available levels of serotonin, as it leads to an elevated risk of a potentially fatal condition called serotonin syndrome (or serotonin storm).

If you've found that your SSRI prescription is too low, you may consider discussing options and recommendations with your prescribing doctor for adjusting the dose.

Can you take st johns wort and not take 5-HTP for good resultsSome articles suggest taking them both. But i would like to only take st johns wort and not 5-HTP. will i see improvements taking it alone?

AnswerOf course you can take St Johns Wort alone, and you will still see some improvements. 5-HTP is a naturally occurring amino acid and would help to intensify the results of the St Johns, but is not compulsory. Try out the St Johns and see how effective it is. If you do not see any effects - then you may want to add 5-HTP. As with all herbs, results very dramatically from person to person.
