Aptimust Syrup is used to stimulate appetite and promote weight gain in individuals with reduced food intake, malnutrition, or during recovery from illness or surgery. It helps increase appetite and supports better nutritional intake.

Measure the specified quantity with a precise measuring device, not just any household spoon.
Always shake the bottle well before use.
This medicine is sugar-based and needs caution for use in diabetic patients. If you have diabetes, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
Replace the cap tightly after use to avoid contamination.
Store at room temperature, away from light and moisture.

Aptimust Syrup is taken orally.

Aptimust Syrup may have the following common side effects:

Drowsiness
Dizziness
Dry mouth, nose, or throat
Constipation
Blurred vision
Increased appetite and weight gain

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Aptimust Syrup. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

If Aptimust Syrup makes you feel drowsy or dizzy during the day, consider taking it at bedtime instead. Drinking plenty of water can help soothe a dry mouth; avoid drinks that can dehydrate you like coffee and alcohol.

Aptimust Syrup contains three active ingredients:

Cyproheptadine (2 mg): This is an antihistamine and antiserotonergic agent. It works by blocking serotonin in the hypothalamus region of your brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that usually suppresses appetite; by blocking its function, cyproheptadine helps stimulate appetite.
Sorbitol (2 gm): Sorbitol acts as a sugar substitute and syrup base in the formulation. Additionally, it functions as an osmotic laxative, helping prevent or relieve constipation that may occur with the use of cyproheptadine.
Tricholine Citrate (275 mg): This is a lipotropic agent that aids in removing fat from the liver. It does so by eliminating bile acids from your body which converts cholesterol into bile acids, thereby reducing cholesterol levels. This mechanism might indirectly enhance appetite.

Pregnancy

Is it safe to consume Aptimust Syrup during pregnancy?

Caution is advised while taking Aptimust Syrup if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Using Machines & Driving
