Apcy Syrup 200 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Cyproheptadine hydrochloride (antihistamine/antiallergic) and Tricholine citrate (bile acid binder). Cyproheptadine hydrochloride works by reducing the effect of a chemical messenger in the hypothalamus called serotonin, thereby helps stimulate the appetite. Tricholine citrate is a bile acid-binding agent that works by removing excess bile acid which causes the liver to produce more bile acid utilizing cholesterol, this, in turn, lowers the fat content in the body.
