5-HTP is short for 5-Hydroxytryptophan. It is a chemical in your brain that is part of the process of making Serotonin which affects your mood, sleeping, and eating. When you eat meats, soy products, and some plants your body obtains Tryptophan which is converted into 5-HTP which is then again changed into Serotonin. Pills containing 5-HTP are typically used for treating depression but some companies claim that it will help with sleep and appetite but there is not enough evidence to back up the claims.

Can you take Ativan and 5htp at the same time?
should be ok, but ativan is a depressant tranquilliser so why would you need to take 5htp which is an atidepressant.?? There is a risk of doubling sedation in some and in others the 5htp will counteract the sedative of the ativan. I doubt either is what you want. I dont think its dangerous but just unnecesary. iF YOU ARE JUST TREATING ANXIETY Since they are both short acting, you should take the 5htp in the morning and the ativan at bedtime.
