Description
The Zetpil™ Suppository Format
Zetpil™ Seratone Suppositories combine a proprietary blend of 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), L-theanine, and L-citrulline with B vitamins, folinic acid, calcium, and other formulation ingredients.
Each suppository contains 480 mg of the combined proprietary blend, along with additional vitamins and nutrients. The suppository base includes plant and fruit butters, medium-chain triglycerides, phospholipids, lecithin, and arrowroot starch.
The product is formulated for rectal administration. Each package contains 30 suppositories.
Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use, particularly because 5-HTP is involved in serotonin metabolism and may interact with certain medications.
What Is 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP)?
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), also known as oxitriptan, is a naturally occurring compound produced during the body’s metabolism of the amino acid tryptophan.
5-HTP is an intermediate in the biochemical pathway involved in serotonin synthesis. Serotonin is a naturally occurring signaling molecule that participates in numerous physiological processes.
5-HTP is also found in extracts of Griffonia simplicifolia seeds, a botanical source used in certain formulations.
Research involving 5-HTP or serotonin metabolism does not establish the safety, absorption, or effectiveness of this particular suppository formulation.
Understanding Serotonin
Serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), is a signaling molecule involved in normal neurological and physiological processes.
Serotonin participates in communication between certain nerve cells and is involved in pathways associated with mood, appetite, sleep, and gastrointestinal function.
Serotonin production, metabolism, and signaling are complex biological processes influenced by numerous factors.
These established physiological functions do not demonstrate that this product increases serotonin levels in the brain or produces specific changes in mood, sleep, or other clinical outcomes.
About the Zetpil™ Seratone Formulation
Zetpil™ Seratone contains a proprietary blend of Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract standardized for 5-HTP, L-theanine, and L-citrulline.
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP): A naturally occurring compound involved in the biochemical pathway that produces serotonin.
L-Theanine: An amino acid naturally occurring in tea leaves that has been studied for its biochemical interactions with the nervous system.
L-Citrulline: An amino acid involved in normal metabolic pathways, including those associated with the urea cycle and arginine metabolism.
The combined proprietary blend totals 480 mg per suppository. The individual quantities of 5-HTP, L-theanine, and L-citrulline are not separately disclosed in the published formulation.
The presence of these ingredients does not establish a particular therapeutic effect or enhanced absorption from this finished product.
Additional Vitamins and Nutrients
The formulation also contains several B vitamins, folinic acid, calcium, and mixed tocopherols.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine): Participates in normal carbohydrate metabolism and cellular energy processes.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): Contributes to normal metabolic reactions through its role in flavin-containing coenzymes.
Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide): A form of vitamin B3 involved in normal cellular metabolism.
Vitamin B6: Participates in amino acid metabolism and enzymatic reactions, including pathways involved in neurotransmitter synthesis.
Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5): Participates in normal cellular metabolism through its role as a component of coenzyme A.
Biotin (Vitamin B7): Participates in metabolic reactions involving carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids.
Vitamin B12: The formulation contains methylcobalamin and cobamamide, forms of vitamin B12 involved in normal cellular metabolism.
Folinic Acid: A reduced form of folate involved in normal one-carbon metabolic pathways.
Calcium: An essential mineral involved in numerous normal physiological processes.
The established biological roles of these nutrients do not demonstrate specific clinical benefits from this finished suppository formulation.

Warnings and Precautions
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
- Do not combine with antidepressants or other serotonergic medications unless specifically directed and monitored by a qualified healthcare professional. This includes SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants, and other medications that affect serotonin.
- Combining serotonergic substances can increase the risk of serotonin syndrome, a potentially serious medical condition.
- Seek immediate medical attention for symptoms suggestive of serotonin syndrome, such as agitation, confusion, fever, rapid heartbeat, muscle rigidity, or tremors.
- Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Consult your healthcare provider if you have cardiovascular disease, blood pressure concerns, a bleeding disorder, or another medical condition.
- Individuals with hemophilia should not use this product without specific medical clearance.
- Consult your healthcare provider regarding possible effects on blood pressure and interactions with medications.
- Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity to phospholipids or any listed ingredient.
- Do not use if the suppository or its packaging is open or damaged.
- Discontinue use and seek medical guidance if an adverse reaction occurs.
Due to the nature of this product, suppositories cannot be returned or exchanged.
