A member asked:
Is buclizine good for you? does it cause weight gain and does it make anorexia patients better?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
May be migraine: Buclizine is contained in some medications claimed to be effective against migraine. A search revealed no published articles on buclizine and weight gain in the last 40 years, and only a very few before 1970, mostly untraceable non-english articles.. There is no convincing literature regarding the use of this drug.

See below: Buclizine, cyclizine, and Meclizine are used to prevent and treat nausea, vomiting, and dizziness associated with motion sickness, and vertigo (dizziness caused by other medical problems). They do not make anorexia patients better. See http://www.Ncbi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmedhealth/pmht0011055/.
