5 htp stomach pain

I have started taking 5-htp 50m 2 days before and throughout the day I feel stomach pain, is it normal to have these symptoms?
Is there something to do to minimize it?

Although uncommon, digestive complaints including stomach pain can occur in some people taking this supplement, especially those with a history of ulcers. I strongly encourage you to speak with your doctor about whether to continue using it or find an alternative. This supplement can also interfere with some medications, so it’s always very important to let your primary care physician know about any new supplements you are taking. Best-Zoe

Thank you for return me back, I am feeling much better-taking supplements in the morning after breakfast. Bye, the way I’ll talk with my doctor.
