Cyproheptadine transdermal application in cats may cause drowsiness, sedation, and increased appetite. Monitor your cat closely for changes in behavior or appetite.
Dry mouth is another possible side effect. Ensure your cat has access to fresh water at all times.
Some cats experience mild gastrointestinal upset, including vomiting or diarrhea. If these symptoms are severe or persistent, contact your veterinarian.
Less common, but still possible, side effects include tremors, ataxia (lack of coordination), and restlessness. Report any unusual neurological signs to your vet immediately.
Allergic reactions, while rare, can occur. Watch for skin rashes, hives, or difficulty breathing. Seek immediate veterinary attention if an allergic reaction is suspected.
Remember that individual responses to medication vary. Your veterinarian can provide personalized advice and monitor your cat’s reaction to the treatment.
