Hey everyone,
Why is everyone so concerned about Cyproheptadine worsening insulin resistance/diabetes risk?
Is this only relevant if someone was to use it DAILY, at doses above say 1mg?

This study was using:
CPH hydrochloride (Sharp and Dohme, M/inchen, FRG), in aqueous solution,
was given orally by gastric intubation at a dose of 45 mg/kg body weight. Groups
of rats received 3, 5, 10, or 20 consecutive daily doses.

Has anyone found anything else on Cyproheptadine affecting insulin/blood sugar?
