Hungry Syrup 200ml
Medical Description
Hungry syrup is an appetite stimulant that is used to treat appetite loss. It includes tricholine and cyproheptadine. It works by blocking the activity of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that functions as an appetite suppressant. As a result, hunger is increased by continually raising the energy needed.
It increases the urge to eat in those who are undernourished or malnourished. Hungry syrup should not be used in children below 1 year of age. Always shake the bottle well before consuming. Inform your doctor if you are on any other medicine or have medical conditions.
If you experience any other undesired effects, such as dizziness, sleepiness, dry mouth, altered coordination, or confusion after consuming this medicine, and if these symptoms get worse, reach out to your doctor.
