Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details, in which there is no mention of how is your blood glucose controlled. Sometimes if blood glucose is not wll controlled, there is a chance of loosing weight and developing signs of general weakness. The medicine mentioned (cyproheptadine) is actually an antihistamine. Appetite stumlation is a side-effect of that drug. It is not supposed to be taken for that at all. Plus it will produce fair amount of drowsiness. Thanks.

Your medicines do contain steroid inside it and the steroids will be devastating for you. I advise you to eat good foods without steroid medication. You need an extra 500 calories a day if you want to put on extra weight in a week. - protein is the key for muscle building; it will help you gain muscle weight rather than fat mass. Good sources of protein are red meat and poultry, eggs, whole grains. Salmon is high in calories and healthy fats.

It is not advised to take it for weight gain. It is recommended that you include things in your diet plan that help in weight gain. Make your habit of consuming boiled egg, banana, roasted dates, and ghee daily. These are the natural procedures for weight gain without harming your body.

Hello
we have to check the height, weight, and other growth parameters of your child to find if cause is organic. If every thing is normal you can try some appetizers like cyproheptadine for short period.
