HOW APPISHOT SYRUP WORKS

APPISHOT SYRUP is a combination of Cyproheptadine, Tricholine and Sorbitol, where Cyproheptadine is an appetite-stimulant which works by reducing the effect of a chemical messenger (serotonin) in the hypothalamus, a part of the brain which regulates appetite. Tricholine helps in removing bile acids from the body. The liver then produces more bile acids using cholesterol, as a result of which cholesterol level is lowered. Sorbitol acts as a syrup base and also as an osmotic laxative to relieve constipation.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Always take APPISHOT SYRUP as advised by your physician. Shake well before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. It may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time as advised by your physician. Your doctor will decide the correct dose, frequency and duration of the management for you depending upon your age, body weight and disease condition.
