Abstract：
:Cyproheptadine is a drug with direct antimuscarinic, antihistaminic (H1) and antiseronergic (5HT2) effects. In spite of its use as an orexigenic agent in normal or anorectic subjects, little is known about its effect in affective, anxiety or psychotic disorders. We present the case of a 14-year patient beginning with a psychotic syndrome after the sudden withdrawal cyproheptadine, achieving a total control of the symptoms with olanzapine at low dose, besides a good family, school and social adaptation.
