crystalline powder, with
a molecular weight of 350.89, which is slightly soluble in water,
freely soluble in
methanol, sparingly soluble in alcohol, soluble in chloroform, and
practically insoluble in
ether. It is the sesquihydrate of 4-(5H
dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-ylidene)-1-
methylpiperidine hydrochloride. The molecular formula of the anhydrous

Cyproheptadine is a serotonin and histamine antagonist with
anticholinergic and sedative
effects. Antiserotonin and antihistamine drugs appear to compete with
serotonin and
histamine, respectively, for receptor sites.
PHARMACOKINETICS AND METABOLISM
After a single 4 mg oral dose of 14C-labelled cyproheptadine HCI in
normal subjects,
given as tablets, 2 to 20% of the radioactivity was excreted in the
stools. Only about
34% of the stool radioactivity was unchanged drug, corresponding to
less than 5.7% of
21
21
the dose. At least 40% of the administered radioactivity was excreted
in the urine. No
detectable amounts of unchanged drug were present in the urine of
patients on chronic
12 to 20 mg daily doses. The principle metabolite found in human urine
has been
identified as a quaternary ammonium glucuronide conjugate of
cyproheptadine.
Elimination is diminished in renal insufficiency.
