Abstract
Cyproheptadine is an H-1 antihistamine with anticholinergic and antiserotonergic effects. Cyproheptadine’s most common use has been in the management cold-induced urticaria. It is often used in primary care for its side effect of appetite stimulation. Recently there has been increasing interest in its use in the treatment of drug-induced serotonin syndrome. Cyproheptadine overdose is uncommonly reported in the medical literature. We report the rare case of a pediatric cyproheptadine overdose with a confirmatory cyproheptadine level.
