Considerations. Serotonin is a mood regulator that occurs naturally in the body. When serotonin levels are chemically altered, as they are with the use of diet supplements such as Phentermine, a chemical imbalance occurs that may lead to feelings of anxiety or depression.
Some medications for depression also increase serotonin. Taking 5-HTP along with these medications for depression might increase serotonin too much and cause serious side effects including heart problems, shivering, and anxiety. Do not take 5-HTP if you are taking medications for depression.aking 5-HTP along with these medications for depression might increase serotonin too much and cause serious side effects including heart problems, shivering, and anxiety.
