Composition

Active Ingredient: Cyproheptadine Hydrochloride

Indications

Oraxin Syrup is indicated for:

  • Stimulation of appetite in children and adults
  • Management of underweight conditions
  • Treatment of poor appetite due to chronic illness or other underlying conditions

Dosage and Administration

Mechanism of Action

Cyproheptadine is an antihistamine that works by blocking H1 receptors and serotonin receptors, which can stimulate appetite. It also has anticholinergic and sedative properties.

Precautions and Warnings

  • Consult a Doctor: Before use, especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions, or if the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Drug Interactions: Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, as Cyproheptadine can interact with other drugs, particularly other central nervous system depressants.
  • Side Effects: Common side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision. Severe side effects are rare but may include confusion, hallucinations, difficulty urinating, and severe allergic reactions.
  • Avoid Alcohol: Alcohol can increase the sedative effects of Cyproheptadine.

Storage

  • Store at room temperature, away from light and moisture.
  • Keep out of reach of children.
