Periactin is an old fashioned anti-histimine that is used to combat anorexia caused by other drugs -- like HIV drugs and chemotherapy -- as well as some of the side effects of SSRIs, etc. (It's useful for a lot of people for the anorgasmia from SSRIs, for instance.) The benefits of periactin are that it's cheap -- long been generic -- short acting, so there aren't a lot of long term problems, and if it works, it really seems to work.
That's the only thing I can think of.
Good luck.
