Title: Relief of benign essential blepharospasm and ? memory loss by cyproheptadine. Author: Fasanella RM. Journal: Conn Med; 1993 Aug; 57(8):565-6. PubMed ID: 8243089. Abstract: These results in a small group of patients seem quite clear for the benefit of cyproheptadine in patients with BEB, especially where botulinum A injections fail, are too expensive, or are refused. The apparent memory improvement requires further study. A search for more effective serotonin antagonists without the anticholinergic and antihistaminic side effects of cyproheptadine is needed and is in process.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
