Powerfull and 5-htp

Hey guys, I wanted to know if it is safe to take Powerfull and 5-htp at the same time, appreciate the info.

Also does 5-htp reduce libido like SSRI's do?
 
Yes, you can take both at the same time, since the l-carboxy in Powerfull is more of a precursor to dopamine, and 5-htp for serotonin, but I wold start with low doses of each to asses your tolerance. Also remember to cycle off both to prevent attenuation. 5htp can lower sex drive as ssri's do, but the powerfull may help to counter act that.
 
Are the effects of 5-htp as strong as SSRI's on libido, also would I be better of with St. John's Worth?

The reason I ask is I already have low libido and can't take the risk of making it worse.
 
It really varies from person to person, and what you are trying to accomplish. Were you diagnosed with depression, and your doctor perscribed an ssri, or are you just looking for a mood boost? Also, if you naturally have a low libido, you might want to get a full hormone panel done, including having your sero/dopamine levels checked to see what might be going on before screwing with 5htp, which just might make matters worse, especially if you take too much. Also, talk to your doctor about bupropion, aka Wellbutin/Zyban, it has positive effects on libido. Otherwise, like Andrew said, Bocopa, l-theanine, and macuna prureins, would be a good start.
