Cylip P Syrup 200ml is used to stimulate appetite and promote weight gain in individuals with poor appetite or malnutrition. It contains cyproheptadine hydrochloride, an antihistamine that blocks histamine and serotonin receptors, leading to increased appetite. Additionally, it includes tricholine citrate, a hepatoprotective agent, which aids in the treatment of fatty liver by converting fat into phospholipids, and sorbitol, a sweetening agent that also helps in digestion. This combination makes it effective for children and adults needing nutritional support.
Apart from its primary use for inducing hunger, this syrup also plays a role in managing undernutrition or malnutrition. By promoting the desire to eat, it aids in improving the nutritional status of the user. The syrup is also beneficial in managing constipation, which can suppress appetite.
This medication should be administered orally as instructed by your child's doctor. If your child experiences any side effects, inform their doctor immediately.
