Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My daughter is 50 days old. Can I give her Cyp L drops to my baby? If yes, what is the dosage? My baby is not sleeping well, so please suggest.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Cyp L drops (Cyproheptadine, Tricholine Citrate, and Sorbitol) are used to increase appetite and have a side-effect of sleepiness. It is not used for putting a child to sleep. And I would not recommend giving these drops to a 50-day-old child.
Children below the age of 6 months stay awake at night and sleep throughout the day, which is why you feel the child is not sleeping well. But it is normal. So, do not worry.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
