The brief

The rest of AFTER HOURS is built around a single night — energy before, hydration during, coming down after. LEVEL is built around the week the night sits in. Two capsules daily with water: 200 mg of 5-HTP from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract, which is what the body makes from tryptophan on the way to serotonin.

Why

One night is a night. The pattern is the week it sits in. Everything else in this system handles a single evening; LEVEL is the daily one, taken on ordinary Tuesdays as much as Sundays. 200 mg of 5-HTP from griffonia seed, two capsules before a meal, for normal serotonin levels. It builds over weeks and does nothing on the night itself, which is the point of it.

What it actually does

200 mg of 5-HTP from griffonia seed, two capsules daily, as ongoing support for normal serotonin levels.

How to use it

Daily

Two capsules once daily with water, 20–30 minutes before a meal. A daily routine, not an as-needed or same-night product — it does nothing on the night itself.

A man in a grey tank top sitting on the edge of a bed, city skyline through the window behind him.

A man in a navy tank top walking a city street in daylight, streetcar passing behind him.

A man in a grey tank top standing in a doorway, talking to someone out of frame.

A man in a white tank top on a wet street at night, bar lights behind him.

The long version

Every other product in AFTER HOURS has a night attached to it. Energy before, water during, coming down after, sleep once you finally admit it's over. This one has a Tuesday attached to it, which is why nobody puts it in their story.

Two capsules with water before a meal: 200 mg of 5-hydroxytryptophan from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract. 5-HTP is the step between tryptophan and serotonin — your body makes it daily, and griffonia seed is where the supplemental version comes from. Thirty servings. Gelatin capsule, so not vegetarian.

It builds over weeks and does precisely nothing on the night itself. That isn't a flaw, it's the entire proposition. The men who seem unbothered in the group chat on Monday are not blessed with better genetics. They just have habits they don't post about.

One real thing before you order: this interacts with antidepressants and a few other medications — properly, not as a formality. Read the warnings before you buy.

The night is one day. The week is seven. Look after both.

Q&A

Is this something I take at night to sleep?

No — it's a daily routine that does nothing on the night itself. Two capsules once daily, 20–30 minutes before a meal, judged over weeks.

Can I take 5-HTP with antidepressants?

Ask your doctor first — seriously. 5-HTP sits on the serotonin pathway, and combining it with SSRIs or similar medication is a conversation for a professional, not a product page.

Morning or night?

Morning or midday, 20–30 minutes before a meal — it's a daily mood-routine capsule, not a sleeping aid, and it does nothing on the night itself.

Why 200 mg when drugstore capsules are 50–100?

200 mg per two-capsule serving sits inside the commonly studied daily range. If you're new to 5-HTP, nothing stops you starting at one capsule — and the calcium riding along is 35% of your day regardless.

Where is it made?

In the USA — the manufacturer's country of record for this product. (No supplement anywhere is 'FDA-approved'; the oversight lives at the facility level, and that's where this one is made.)

Safety and warnings

DO NOT TAKE WITH ANTIDEPRESSANTS OR SEROTONERGIC RECREATIONAL DRUGS. Combining 5-HTP with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, tramadol, triptans, St John's wort or serotonergic recreational drugs can cause serotonin syndrome, which is a medical emergency. This is not a general caution about interactions — it is the specific reason this product carries a warning. Speak to a doctor before use if you take any prescription medication or have any psychiatric condition. Gelatin capsule, so not vegetarian. Not for anyone under 18, pregnant or nursing.
