Summary

This study is testing whether a medication called cyproheptadine, which can increase appetite, helps improve eating habits in young children with pediatric feeding disorders. Researchers are enrolling 50 children aged 2-6 who struggle with eating and poor weight gain. They will measure changes in eating behaviors, the variety of foods children eat, and growth measurements like weight and height.
