About Stoheal Syrup

Stoheal Syrup belongs to a group of medicines called 'appetite enhancers' used to stimulate the appetite and treat alimentary tract and metabolism problems. Stoheal Syrup helps in the treatment of lack of appetite, weight loss, and anorexia nervosa (an eating disorder with low body weight). Besides this, it is also prescribed for underweight children who have an inadequate dietary intake, loss of appetite, anaemia, liver/digestive disorder and as an adjunct to anti-tubercular (anti-TB drugs) and antiretroviral (anti-HIV drugs) treatment for weight gain.

Stoheal Syrup is a combination of two drugs, namely: Cyproheptadine hydrochloride (antihistamine/antiallergic) and Tricholine citrate (bile acid binder). Cyproheptadine hydrochloride works by reducing the effect of a chemical messenger in the hypothalamus called serotonin, thereby helps stimulate the appetite. Tricholine citrate is a bile acid-binding agent that works by removing excess bile acid which causes the liver to produce more bile acid utilizing cholesterol, this, in turn, lowers the fat content in the body.

You are advised to take Stoheal Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as dry mouth, drowsiness, confusion, and ataxia (impaired balance or coordination). Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side-effects persist or worsen.
 
Inform your doctor if you have asthma, hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure, intraocular (eye) pressure or heart problems. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant. It is not recommended to take Stoheal Syrup if you are breastfeeding. Stoheal Syrup may cause drowsiness, so drive only if you are alert. Avoid consumption of alcohol while taking Stoheal Syrup as it may cause increased drowsiness. Keep your doctor informed about the medicines and your health condition to rule out any side-effects.
