Cushing's disease presenting with growth failure: clinical remission during cyproheptadine therapy.

D B Grant, S M Atherden.   

Abstract

A 14.7 year-old boy had almost complete suppression of growth as a result of mild pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease. There was complete clinical remission during treatment with cyproheptadine (12 mg/day) and this was maintained when treatment was stopped after 18 months.
