Guest guest Posted July 5, 2001 Report Share Posted July 5, 2001 Donna - I am guessing if the have only been on Periactin for one week that they are only at 50% of the night dose. Keep going! First of all, after a month when was at 100% of the night dosage and 25% of the morning dose, I hadn't noticed any increase in appetite, but lo and behold, she gained a pound. It has only been in the last month or so (we have had to go very slowly with the morning dosage) that we have truly seen a difference in mealtimes (eating more). And we have been on Periactin for 8 months! But the weight gain continues!
