Periactin (cyproheptadine) "I have always been thin my whole life & tried everything to gain weight. I hate skinny jokes. Still at the age of 31, and you would think 5 kids would have given me some weight, smh. No. So I asked my doctor to prescribe me something. So far, I've been using them for 2 weeks now and I've gone from 100 to 112. I'm supposed to take one at bedtime, but I take them 2-3 times a day, and it literally increases my appetite, which I barely had before. I'm hungry all the time, especially when I wake up in the morning and after dinner. It's a must for a late-night snack or mini meal. I'm really satisfied with my results, my only complaint would be the sleeping too much. I had to start taking half and half of the 4mg because they knock you out for hours. Hope this helps :-)"

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "Really WOW! I've taken this 'Periactin / Cyproheptadine / Cyproheptadine' and I managed to gain 20 kg in 2 months! I was skinny, 57 kg, and I'm now 77 kg! I can take it when my weight drops a bit and it works wonders. Really, if you struggle to gain weight or appetite, try this tab. It's unbelievable!"

"I have been taking cyproheptadine for two years. I started taking it when I was 29 years old and weighing 114. I now weigh 142 pounds, something impossible for me before because no matter how much I ate or what protein shakes I took, I just couldn't gain weight. All my life I used to be depressed about my weight, now I feel good in my skin."

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "It is phenomenal! I put on weight fast. You start to see and feel results so quickly! It's a very motivating feeling! I have gained 14 pounds so far since late March, early April. I'm 5'6. I started at 146. I am now 160. My goal weight is 175. I think that will give me the full-figured, curvy look I want. If you're serious about your weight, this is the solution! Good luck!"

"I've been taking this medicine for weight gain. All my life, I've been struggling with my weight. I'm 35 years old, 5'4, and weighed 92 lbs. After a month, I'm at 110 lbs. This pill is a miracle. I also used to get really bad migraines, but since taking this pill, that has stopped."

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "I have been wanting to gain weight for over ten years. I have a really hard time eating. It's like a chore for me to force myself to eat, and I get full really quickly. Everyone tells me I'm too thin all the time, and mass shakes make me want to puke because they're too sweet and thick. So I've been underweight most of my life. I searched the Internet, and about two weeks ago, I found reviews for Periactin and got really excited to try it. So I got it prescribed right away and have been on it for a week now. I've gained 10 lbs already! This is a miracle! I felt a tiny bit sleepy the first two days, but I've always felt tired from lack of nutrition, so it wasn't much of a difference. I'm so excited to keep gaining!"

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "I started taking this medication. I was 88 pounds, 5'3", and sickly looking. People thought I was on drugs. I had no appetite and hated how my clothes looked! Taking this medicine, I am now 130 pounds and eat like a horse. I gained weight really fast too!! It doesn't make me tired, but my tolerance is high. I'm prescribed medical marijuana as well, which is a help also! I recommend both and CBDs."

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "Hey Everybody, I'm a hard gainer - I have always struggled putting on weight and even struggled to ever feel hungry. I've been taking Periactin for 6 weeks now and I can happily say for the first time in my life I've put on weight! I've put on exactly 6kgs; so it appears I gain about a kg a week, which I'm completely excited about - doesn't sound a lot to most people but any hard gainers out there will know what I'm talking about :) Give it a go - it's worth it :)"

"I started taking these pills in September to increase my appetite. I was 106 lbs in September 2014, and now in January I'm 130 lbs. I can't believe I gained 24 lbs. My ideal weight is 140 lbs. I take 3 pills a day and I eat 2300 calories a day or more. Although they make me sleepy, I fight it off and do what needs to be done throughout the day. After I get to my weight goal, I plan to go down to one pill a day instead of 3. SATISFIED"

"After having kids, I had a hard time trying to maintain my weight. At my lowest point, I was way down to like 109 lbs. Over the years, I would fluctuate between 117 to 120 lbs. I'm 5'5'', and I felt pretty skinny, which made me uncomfortable. So, after researching Periactin, I went to my doctor and got the prescription. I must say, these pills changed my life. I'm now at 140 lbs, I feel great, and they worked pretty fast. I would say within 3 weeks, I noticed big changes. I stopped taking the pills a few months ago, and I'm still maintaining the weight. Plus, I added Boost Plus to my diet, and I'm very satisfied. Everyone notices the weight I put on. Oh, and I only took one tablet at night because they do make you extra sleepy... pros outweigh cons."

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "This medication is PHENOMENAL!! I'm 11 and I was only about 81 pounds, which was a problem for me. But then my doctor prescribed me with this pill and it totally changed my life!!! In about 4 weeks I was 90 pounds... I was so happy!!! I definitely recommend this pill if you are trying to gain weight. Although it will make you sleepy it's still very helpful because I do have trouble going to sleep at night!!! I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS PILL, AND IT HAS DEFINITELY CHANGED MY LIFE!!!! "

"I struggled with weight gain for a couple of years and was recommended Cyproheptadine. I weighed 116lbs when I began taking Cyproheptadine and 9 months later I had gained 20lbs! My secret to gaining the weight much faster was taking the pill 3 times a day (breakfast,lunch,dinner) with a heavy meal, I also made sure I didn't do that much moving right after eating. Trust the process and stay consistent and you'll 100% see a difference :)"

"Been on yproheptadine a week, 1st day was only sleeping every time I took a pill. Next day hunger struck, also was drinking loads more water. I've gained about 10 pounds in the last week, water weight and muscle fullness with 2 pounds of fat. Cons: - Anger has severely gone up ever since on this medication. - Nauseous from over eating - Cannot sleep properly, makes me stop breathing on some occasions. - Depression and really dark thoughts have severely gone up."

"I had been trying to gain weight for over twenty years, but just did not have a big enough appetite. Started taking cyproheptadine and vitamin B supplement (B1, B2, B6, and B12). I gained 30 lbs. in 6 months and the response from coworkers, family, and friends was unbelievable. Everyone said I looked great. I went from a size 3 to a size 7, and I am overjoyed."

Periactin (cyproheptadine) "Did NOT WORK for me. I was very disappointed. after seeing all these reviews I was really hopefull. But it did nothing for me other than make me sleepy the first few days. Any other pills out there?"

"I used to be anorexic during my time in high school. I haven't been able to gain weight since then. I began dropping pounds and no matter what I ate, my weight would stayed at 105. I tried protein shakes, eating junk food all the time, nothing worked and my doctor prescribed this and it is amazing!"

"At age 18, I started feeling insecure about me being under weight. So I desperately researched about different weight gain methods, I tried a few but they didn't work. I never gave up, however, I continued searching until I found this product (Cyproheptadine). I am 5'6, when I started using Cyproheptadine I was 111 lbs now I am 141 lbs. My goal weight is 145-150 lbs. I started in March 2018 and we are in September 2018. #FastResult Yes it made me drowsy for the first 3 days and afterwards I was fine. My confident is boosted, my health is very good and the weight is going to the right places. I never regretted buying this product. It is also reasonable."

"I've been thin my whole life and it didn't really bother me until High School never had an appetite to eat anything at all and I started to think something's wrong with me. I took plenty of blood tests and urine tests to see if there was anything wrong with me and 3 different doctors told me I am fine but I felt like deep down something was wrong so I decided to keep trying different doctors to see if anyone can help me and the 4th doctor i went to about this issue in july 2015 changed my life literally I explained my problem and he told me it sounds like anorexia and he prescribed cyproheptadine. This is the best thing that's ever happened to me thnx Dr Greenburg lol P.S to eliminate drowsiness I let it dissolve in orange juice"

"I've been skinny my whole life basically. I'm 5'4", 18 yrs. old and weigh only 98 pounds I asked my doc is there anything I could do to gain at least 10 pounds so I could feel healthier and better about myself. She told me to just learn to love myself more but I guess she didn't understand that I love everything about me but I would love to put on some extra pounds. Well I started taking these last night and I would highly recommend NOT taking these if you have somewhere to be or something to do. My appetite skyrocketed and I ate everything in sight, but when I'm at least a month into these I'll update on everything."

"I have struggled with gaining weight/appetite for a while now. After dropping down to 109 and hearing comments every day about being thin, I saw my doctor and he prescribed me this. It has worked wonders for my appetite! I put on 10 lbs in almost 3 weeks and plan to keep going until I'm about 130. They made me sleepy at first but now that has worn off after about the 2nd week. If you are looking to put on weight I highly recommend trying these... Great appetite enhancer!"

"I love this medicine!! I started it 04/09/18 to help me with my poor appetite and help me gain weight.. LET'S JUST SAY IT DID JUST THAT.. I have been struggling with weight gain for years. It does take 3 days for your body to get use to it and you will be sleepy.. But after the 3 days you will eat like a fat grown man. I eat over 4000k calories daily. I gained 10lbs within the 1st 10 days. I was picking up between 2/4lbs every week. I was eating breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and late night dinner. I stayed snacking on something if I wasn't eating a meal. What help me out with my weight to was I was eating shakes everyday with a meals. I stop taken it 06/20/18. I still eat good not as good as when I was on the pills. But I have maintain my weight and eating habits off the pills. I have gained a TOTAL OF 35lbs IN 2 1/2 MONTHS.. I started the pill weighing in at 105lbs size 0/1 to now weighing 140lbs size 6/7.."

"I have struggled for years to keep weight on, I am 5'2" and was 96lbs. None of my clothes have ever looked good on me....People just don't feel sympathy for people that struggle to gain weight. It's always about diets and losing weight. My appetite was terrible and I would have to force myself to eat....my doctor prescribed this medication a week ago and I have gained 10lbs so far. Cannot wait to see what I look like in two weeks! I will finally be able to wear adult women's clothes and have them fit!"
