I m 22 years old & my weight is 55 kg how my weight is gain. ## Have you consulted a doctor? Practin contains the active ingredient Cyproheptadine, which is an antihistamine and it can cause stimulation of the appetite and weight gain, as a side effect. However, it should only be used with a doctor's approval. If you are underweight, it is very important that you consult a doctor to discover the root cause, however, you also may just naturally be meant to be small, due to genetics and there may be nothing you can do to change it.

Where can I find peractin pills and how much do the pills cost? ## Because Periactin (Cyproheptadine) is a prescription medication, you're probably going to have to make an appointment with a local doctor in order to see about getting it prescribed.
