There must be an error with the 4 hours half-life thing regarding cyproheptadine. I have personally taken it many times, and when I am taking it I don't expect a very productive next day...either the half-life is incorrect or I'm very sensitive to it, anyhows, 4 mg taken before bedtimes will cause effects that I still feel until at least 4 or 5 pm the next day... 16 hours would be more like it instead of 4. As regarding it's strength , it is pretty effcicient... very much like mirtazapine to me. Hope it helps
