How CYPROMEX-T Works
Cyproheptadine Hydrochloride is an antihistamine with appetite-stimulating effects. As a result, it may help increase appetite in some patients.
Meanwhile, Tricholine Citrate is used in formulations intended to support appetite and nutritional intake.
Therefore, the combination may help patients who experience reduced appetite. The exact treatment depends on the patient’s condition and medical advice.
Common Side Effects
Some people may experience side effects while using Cyproheptadine-containing medicines.
Possible side effects include:
- Drowsiness
- Dizziness
- Dry mouth
- Increased appetite
- Nausea
- Headache
- Stomach discomfort
However, side effects can vary from person to person. If severe or unusual symptoms occur, contact a healthcare professional.
Because Cyproheptadine may cause drowsiness, take care when driving or operating machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Before starting treatment, tell your doctor if you have:
- Liver or kidney problems
- Glaucoma
- Breathing problems

Also, tell your doctor about all medicines and supplements you currently use. Some medicines may interact with Cyproheptadine.

Furthermore, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before using this medicine.
Dosage and Administration
The doctor decides the appropriate dose based on the patient’s age, condition and response to treatment.
Generally, take the syrup by mouth according to the prescribed dose. Before each dose, shake the bottle well.
Use a proper measuring device to measure the syrup accurately. Do not take more than the recommended dose.
If you miss a dose, take it when you remember. However, skip the missed dose if it is almost time for the next one. Do not take an extra dose to make up for the missed dose.
