Question of the Week

Q. For infants who refuse to eat. As a last resort can we prescribe cyproheptadine? As an appetizer is its use rational? If yes how often and for how long should it be administered? I read everywhere that it is used only after 2 years. But I have seen quite a lot of practitioners giving it as an appetizer even below two years.
