Periodically i experience low appetite and little sleep at night.what do i do please?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Please be checked by: Your doctor foot possible depression. If an antidepressant or simply a medication to help sleep and appetite is needed, your doctor could consider Mirtazapine 30 mg at bedtime. Best wishes.
