I have been taking Omega 3 and Krill oil for several years for the health benefit. I didn't know if they could help with MDD.
I was thinking, at one time, about going with a high dose of 5HTP prior to getting on the Pristiq, of which I've been on for about 18 mos now. In the event I, or my pdoc feels the Pristiq is no longer of benefi, I may suggest trying the 5HTP. Not sure how my pdoc would react. Also, might have to give up the Remeron at night. Also need to consider the Latuda that I take nightly. I wouldn't think 5HTP would react either way to an AP. But a good question for the pdoc should I go that route.
