Cyproheptadine

An antihistamine with sedative and appetite-stimulating properties.

Treatment of anorexia (loss of appetite), particularly in individuals with weight loss or malnutrition.

Management of certain types of allergic reactions, although this is primarily due to the cyproheptadine component.

Cyproheptadine blocks the action of histamine, a substance released during allergic reactions, leading to reduced symptoms like itching and swelling. It also affects serotonin levels, potentially stimulating appetite. The role of tricholine citrate is less clearly defined in this combination, though its choline content might support liver function and overall health. Sorbitol serves as an inactive ingredient.
