[quote=Anonymous]We were advised to increase butter, oils, gravy, cheese, etc., and even to give nightly bowl of ice cream. DD liked croissants, so I kept them on hand. We’d occasionally make very fattening milkshakes with ice cream, peanut butter, and a bottle or two of Carnation Breakfast Essentials for protein. When dd really struggled, she needed to take Cyproheptadine (Periactin) to stimulate her appetite, and it helped. Concerta suppressed her appetite more than any other stimulant she’s tried. She now takes a short acting stimulant twice per day instead of one dose of a long acting medication, and she’s more hungry. She’s also had less appetite suppression from stimulants since going through puberty.[/quote]
