Does Periactin really work for weight gain ## I've tried it! It opens ur appetite and makes u gain weight, but it makes u really sleepy. ## Periactin contains the active ingredient Cyproheptadine, it is used to treat allergic reactions, nightmares, migraines and seratonin syndrome. It is not approved for use in the US as an aid in gaining weight, though since some doctors have found this to be a side effect, they may, at their discretion, prescribe it for such as an off-label use. Other common side effects may include: drowsiness, headache, nausea and suppression of growth. You can read more here: Are there any other questions?
