    AMORYN Can Help
    Will AMORYN work for me? The main active ingredient in AMORYN has been clinically proven to help relieve depression and anxiety. Surveys of AMORYN customers demonstrate a high success rate, with nearly 80% reporting positive results, so there's an excellent chance that AMORYN will work for you. To get a better idea of what to expect, please read testimonials from people who have been helped by AMORYN. Keep in mind, however, that every person is different. Individual results will vary. But if you've been feeling unusually sad, disinterested in life, hopeless, nervous or irritable, then AMORYN may allow you to enjoy life again. (Note that AMORYN is a supplement, not a drug, and should not be considered a substitute for FDA-approved medication or professional medical treatment.)
    How long must I take AMORYN before I start feeling better? AMORYN works gradually and will not produce immediate improvement, and most people must take AMORYN every day for many weeks to see results. More than half of AMORYN users experience results in four weeks or less, but in some cases 6-8 weeks may pass before AMORYN begins working. Once AMORYN starts to work, it may continue to produce increasing improvement for many weeks, so it may not achieve maximum effectiveness for eight weeks or more. Although AMORYN works gradually, the long-term effects can be quite dramatic. (We often hear from clients who eventually experienced great results after nearly giving up. They often didn't recognize that AMORYN was working until, after taking the supplement for many weeks, they woke up one day and realized that they felt much better than before.) If you don't start experiencing changes in the first four weeks, it may help to raise the daily dose to three or four capsules daily.
    What's the difference between the St. John's wort in AMORYN and other St. John's wort extracts? AMORYN contains a standardized amount of hyperforin, the active ingredient in St. John's wort. A daily dose (two capsules) of AMORYN contains at least 36mg of hyperforin, an amount shown in clinical trials to help relieve depression. In fact, the St. John's wort extract in AMORYN is the same "pharmaceutical grade" extract prescribed in Europe for depression. Most other St. John's wort formulas are practically worthless because they do not contain a significant amount of hyperforin. Be wary of products that claim to be "standardized", because most standardize only for hypericin (but not hyperforin). While hypericin may have some activity, hyperforin is the primary active ingredient. In other words, AMORYN contains the highest quality St. John's wort in the world, and is the only product that uses the power of science to harness the full healing potential of St. John's wort. If you're currently taking another brand of St. John's Wort, there's no need to continue taking it once you start taking AMORYN.
    Is AMORYN a prescription medication? No, AMORYN is a natural supplement, not a drug. A prescription is not necessary to purchase AMORYN. (Please keep in mind that AMORYN has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of any medical condition. Although clinical research shows that the main ingredient in AMORYN can help relieve mild or moderate depression, AMORYN should not be considered a substitute for FDA-approved medication or professional medical treatment.)
    What's the difference between AMORYN and SEREDYN? Both AMORYN and SEREDYN can help relieve anxiety and panic. But the supplements contain different ingredients that work through different mechanisms. One dose of SEREDYN works quickly (i.e. within 15-60 minutes) to provide a sense of calm and tranquility. SEREDYN can be taken every day, although it's also effective when taken occasionally as needed. AMORYN must be taken every day and does not have an immediate effect. Rather, AMORYN works gradually over many weeks. But after six weeks, 90% of users with depression and 88% with anxiety report positive results. Because AMORYN is also effective at relieving depression, you should order AMORYN if you suffer primarily from depression. If you're interested in a supplement to help relieve occasional and mild anxiety, then you should order SEREDYN. For chronic or severe anxiety, panic attacks, or anxiety along with depression, we recommend combining AMORYN and SEREDYN.
    Directions and Dosage
    Should I take AMORYN every day, or only "as needed"? AMORYN should be taken everyday. Missing a dose occasionally is not a problem, but it is not intended to be taken sporadically or on an "as needed" basis. For most people, AMORYN must be taken at least once a day for many days or weeks before benefits are noticed. Please read information about Dosage and Directions for Use to learn more.
    How many capsules should I take daily? The recommended adult dose is two capsules daily, and this dose works well for most people. If you don't experience any improvement after taking AMORYN for four weeks, you may increase the dose to three or four capsules daily. Remember that most people don't see results immediately, so allow AMORYN at least a few weeks to start working before raising the dose. If you're particularly sensitive, small, or experience side effects, consider decreasing the dose to one capsule daily. Even this dose is effective for many people. Please read information about Dosage and Directions for Use to learn more.
    When, during the day, should I take AMORYN? Start by taking one capsule in the morning and one capsule in the afternoon or early evening. You can adjust this schedule if necessary. Do not take more than one capsule at a time. Capsules should be taken at least a few hours apart to maximize absorption and effectiveness. Feel free to adjust the schedule as needed. For instance, in the unlikely event that you experience insomnia, take your last dose earlier in the day.
    Safety
    Can I take AMORYN if I am currently taking a prescription anti-depressant medication? You should consult your doctor before combining AMORYN with any prescription anti-depressant medication. In most cases, AMORYN can be taken with your current anti-depressant medication if your doctor approves and supervises. Review the Drug Interactions to learn more.
    Can I take AMORYN if I am currently taking a prescription anti-anxiety medication? AMORYN can be safely combined with benzodiazepines such as Valium® (diazepam), Xanax® (alprazolam), and Ativan® (Lorazepam). You should consult your doctor before combining AMORYN with any other prescription anti-anxiety medications, including SSRI drugs. Review the Drug Interactions to learn more.
    Is AMORYN safe for children? AMORYN is safe for teenagers, but children under twelve (12) should not take AMORYN without the supervision of a pediatrician. Teenagers under eighteen (18) years of age should take AMORYN only with the consent and supervision of their parents or guardians. Young children should start with a dose of one-half (1/2) capsule daily, and teenagers should begin with a dose of one (1) capsule daily. Dosage can be increased after two weeks.
    Is it safe to take AMORYN while pregnant or nursing? There is no specific evidence to suggest that taking AMORYN while pregnant or nursing is unsafe for either mother or baby. We insist, however, that you consult your physician before taking AMORYN (or any other supplement) while pregnant or nursing.
    Is it safe to consume alcohol while taking AMORYN? Yes, consumption of small amounts of alcohol is safe while taking AMORYN. No evidence suggests that AMORYN increases the risk of drinking larger quantities of alcohol, but the makers of AMORYN advise against it. Alcohol abuse can prevent recovery from depression and anxiety.
    Can I take AMORYN if I am already taking prescription medications? If you are currently taking prescription medications, consult your physician before taking AMORYN. AMORYN can be taken safely with most prescription medications, but there are a few exceptions. Do not take AMORYN if you are currently taking an MAO inhibitor. If you are currently taking an SSRI antidepressant or any other psychiatric medication, take AMORYN only under the close supervision of a physician. AMORYN may reduce the effectiveness of some HIV treatments and oral contraceptives. Review the Drug Interactions to learn more.
    Can I take AMORYN with other vitamins or nutritional supplements? Yes, it's safe to take AMORYN if you are also taking other vitamins or nutritional supplements. In fact, we recommend taking a common multivitamin (e.g. Centrum, One-A-Day) with AMORYN. Taking complementary supplements such as Omega-3 Fatty Acids (commonly provided in fish oil) and SAM-e may supplement the mood-enhancement provided by AMORYN. Amino acids such as Tyrosine and Phenylalanine may be helpful for increasing energy, motivation and focus. And amino acids like GABA and Taurine support feelings of relaxation and may enhance AMORYN's anti-anxiety effect. If you suffer from anxiety or panic, you may also benefit from taking SEREDYN, the fast-acting anti-anxiety supplement. The natural ingredients in SEREDYN work quickly, after a single dose, to relieve feelings of worry, agitation, tension, stress and restlessness. Take AMORYN every day for sustained emotional support and SEREDYN "as needed" for immediate anxiety relief. You can order AMORYN and SEREDYN together online to save on shipping.
    I have severe depression and suicidal thoughts. Can AMORYN help? AMORYN may help alleviate severe depression, but it should not be considered a replacement for professional medical treatment or FDA-approved medication. If you suffer from severe depression or have suicidal thoughts, consult a doctor immediately. Only a medical professional is qualified to diagnose and treat depression. Finally, keep in mind that you can overcome even severe depression. With the proper treatment and hard work, you can go on to lead a happy, fulfilled life.
    Does AMORYN contain: gluten, soy, casein, yeast, or wheat? No, AMORYN does not contain: gluten, soy, casein, yeast, or wheat.
    Possible Side Effects
    Will I experience side effects when taking AMORYN? Most people taking AMORYN experience absolutely NO side effects. When side effects do occur, they are almost always mild. Please read information about Side Effects to learn more.
    What are the possible side effects? Although most people taking AMORYN do not experience side effects, mild side effects are possible. The most common side effects are headache and stomach upset. Other possible side effects include nausea, insomnia, fatigue, and increased sensitivity to sunlight. Some people may experience a temporary increase in anxiety when they first start taking AMORYN. When taken for at least one month, however, AMORYN typically reduces anxiety. Please read information about Side Effects to learn more.
    Can AMORYN cause sexual side effects? Sexual side effects are rare. In fact, we have not received a single report of impotence or severe loss of libido due to AMORYN. Many people report that AMORYN actually improves sexual function.
    Does AMORYN cause weight gain? Although every person responds differently, AMORYN does not cause weight gain in most people. In fact, some of the ingredients in AMORYN may actually help to suppress appetite. Keep in mind that anxiety and depression are often accompanied by drastic changes in appetite and weight. By helping to relieve depression and anxiety, the hyperforin in AMORYN may help to normalize appetite and stabilize weight.
    Will I fail a drug test if I take AMORYN? No, AMORYN will not cause a false positive on a drug test. You can safely take AMORYN even if you are routinely drug-tested.
    I began experiencing increased anxiety after starting AMORYN. Is this normal? Although AMORYN typically reduces anxiety in the long run, you may experience increased anxiety when you first start taking AMORYN. This is not uncommon, and does not mean that AMORYN will not work for you. Remember that you must take AMORYN every day for 4-8 weeks to see positive results. How you feel after taking AMORYN for a couple weeks is not indicative of how you'll feel after taking it for a couple months.
    What should I do if I have difficulty sleeping after taking AMORYN? For most people, AMORYN improves sleep patterns. But a small number of people experience difficulty sleeping after starting AMORYN. To some degree, this is a positive sign. Hypersomnia (i.e. sleeping too much) is a common symptom of depression. As you begin to overcome depression with the help of AMORYN, you may begin to require less sleep. A reduction of a few hours per night is normal. But if you experience significant insomnia or sleep disturbance then you should adjust your dosing schedule. Taking the second dose earlier in the day often resolves the problem. (For instance, you might take your second dose with lunch or in the early afternoon rather than in the evening.) If you still have trouble sleeping, try reducing the dose to one capsule daily in the morning. Even this dose is effective for many people.
    What should I do if I experience headaches when taking AMORYN? Headache is the most common side effect of AMORYN. (Keep in mind, however, that only about 10% of AMORYN users report experiencing headaches.) Headaches caused by AMORYN often disappear after taking AMORYN for a few days or weeks. Try drinking extra water, as this quickly solves the problem for most people. If headaches persist, try reducing your daily dose to one capsule in the morning. Even this dose is effective for many people.

    How much does AMORYN cost? AMORYN costs far less than expensive prescriptions and even other mood supplements. (No other mood formula, including those costing $60 or even $90 per bottle, contains ingredients of a higher quality or backed by more research than the ingredients in AMORYN.

    Can I order SEREDYN and AMORYN together to save on shipping? Yes, you can order both supplements at once to save on shipping. SEREDYN can be taken "as needed" to relieve anxiety and panic quickly, whereas AMORYN must be taken every day for many weeks to provide sustained relief from anxiety, panic and/or depression. Both supplements contain different ingredients that work in different ways, but both can help to reduce worry and relieve anxiety. For individuals taking AMORYN primarily for anxiety or panic, adding SEREDYN (either every day or occasionally when needed) may provide the best results.
    Do you ship to PO boxes? Yes, we do ship AMORYN to PO boxes. UPS does not deliver to PO boxes, so all orders sent to PO boxes will be shipped via US Postal Service Priority Mail. If you desire delivery to a PO box, place your order with the default shipping method, "UPS Ground". Your order will automatically be switched to USPS Priority Mail.
    Once I order, how long will it take for my AMORYN to arrive? Most orders are shipped the next business day. The delivery time depends on which shipping method you choose when placing your order. In the US, allow 3-8 days for UPS Ground, the default method. UPS NextDay and 2ndDay are also available for faster delivery.
