> Hey MacPac, so how do u know its safe for humans? i mean if it was suitable for humans you would think they would have a separate brand wouldnt u?

just one more point...
no, I think they way the business world may work is that you get a license to produce supplements, etc. for vetinary(animal use) purposes only..so they have no reason or license to bring in a "human" brand. It does not however automatically imply inferiority..just that one should check to see if it is suitable ie. identical to what would be sold to humans and as pure..and you can't expect the company to help with this much as they are not licensed to sell for human consumption.

The only things I think, that are really safe are those with a long history of safe use. (unfortunately this doesn't always suit the pharmaceutical industry)

The serotonin drugs may be just as dangerous as the tryptophans etc .. ...serotonin syndrome?but if you do need them, you have to decide, perhaps together with a doc? And OK it with your doc know if you do decide to start taking any of these, especially if already taking other drugs...
