Hi there, thanks for asking. Many medications that treat depression, increase appetite as well. Some medication from the class of tetracyclic antidepressants can definitely increase the appetite. THE MAIN REASON IS THAT THESE MEDICATIONS ACT ON THE HISTAMIN RECEPTORS IN THE BRAIN AS WELL WHICH IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE APPETITE. I wish you a good health.
