| Re: 5 HTP and Rhodiola Rosea
The only side effects I remember having while on it were an appetite decrease and a possible lowered sex drive. For the latter one, I say 'possible' because I had started going through perimenopause at the time, so the lowered libido could have been due to already low testosterone and not the 5-htp. Lowered sex drive is a possible side effect of 5-htp, though, in the higher doses. I started at 50mgs and worked up to 200mgs, which is a high dose. I don't know about the ADD, but it should definitely help with the anxiety and OCD. It helped me alot with mine. It's also good for sleep.
