What the Label Data Shows

According to NIH DSLD label rows, 5-HTP sits in the top 65% of products with a countable formula by declared ingredient count.

5-HTP is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a botanical with nutrients supplement built from 6 ingredients from Solgar, sold in capsule form. These ingredients span 6 nutrient categories, vitamin, mineral, amino acid, botanical, and 2 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 6-ingredient formula, 6 of 6 lack a percentage Daily Value in the available source record, leaving their regulatory reference status unspecified on this page.

Availability status shapes how this label record is best used. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2020-02-26. Once a product goes off-market, it is no longer manufactured or sold under this label, yet the DSLD keeps the record intact for historical reference, useful for researchers, anyone with an older bottle on hand, or tracking how formulations changed over time.

About the DSLD database

The DSLD is a label database, not an FDA approval list, under the 1994 DSHEA framework, dietary supplements do not require pre-market approval, and label information reflects what manufacturers self-declare rather than independent laboratory verification. This page presents factual label data for reference only and is not medical advice; consult a licensed healthcare provider before making decisions about any supplement.
