5HTP is a form of L-Tryptophan, which does tend to cause an increase in seratonin and thus - sleepiness. Are you sure that the brands you tried were the same dosage? One brand might have made you sleepy because it was 5 times the dosage of the brand that didn't make you sleepy. Some brands mix 5HTP with other products, Melatonine, GABA, etc. All these things can add up to one brand being more effective than other. Make sure you are really comparing the same thing across both brands.
