Hello Lindiwe Nkomo,

According to the NIH Apetito contains the active ingredient Cyproheptadine which is an antihistamine with additional anticholinergic, antiserotonergic, and local anesthetic properties. This medication can be used to treat a variety of things to include stop allergic reactions, increase appetite, weight gain, reduce migraine pain and stop itching.

Here is what they listed under the side effects:

While this drug has a lengthy list of possible side effects, having your skin pigment changed is not among them.

If you are concerned that this is an adverse reaction from taking the medication please set up an appointment with your doctor so that you can work together to determine if it is safe for you to continue taking this medication.

I hope this helps.
