Does Cypon Help In Improving The Appetite Of An Infant?
Hi my son is 15 months old n is not eating anything from last 4 months.. I used to force feed him n it maintained his weight by from last 1month he is not allowing me to force feed him he just spit out whatever i put in his mouth n as a result he lost 1.5lbs in a month.. can I give him cypon to increase his appetite?? If yes then in what doses??
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Cypon syrup is having cyproheptadine. Cyproheptadine is appetite stimulant. It acts on appetite center of brain. It is safe in children. So you can give to your son. Dose for him would be 1.5ml thrice daily. Don't worry, he will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
