Is there a substitute for this expensive drug!. Who could afford it!?
My parent had leg surgery developed blood clots that went to her lungs, she is ok now but will not eat, no appetiteWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Megace suspension, non-ES version, is cheaper but still expensive!. These medicines can cause blood clots,FYI!.
Periactin, or cyproheptadine, can be used, as well as low dose prednisone to stimulate appetite!. There is a new medication, oxandrine, which shows promise, but expense will be an issue with that as well!.
