How it works:
Cyp-L Syrup has two main components that work together:
Cyproheptadine Hydrochloride
It blocks serotonin and histamine receptors and makes you feel hungrier by sending stronger hunger signals to the brain.
It also helps lessen allergic symptoms like sneezing, a runny nose, or itching.
Lysine Hydrochloride
Lysine Hydrochloride is an essential amino acid that aids in growth, tissue repair, and the production of proteins.
It helps the body absorb nutrients better and speeds up its metabolism.
These substances work together to boost appetite, help you gain weight in a healthy way, and help you recover from being sick or not getting enough nutrients.
