Hello
Cyproheptadine is practine and this causes drowsiness, sedation , confusion, blurred vision dry mouth ( so your friend might have developed ,few side effects ).
Dexona is dexamethasone and never produces such type of side effects .
Since your friend stopped these drugs abruptly ,he will not feel any untoward effects .
Because your friend took these medicines only for seven days , need not to worry.
But you didn't mention ,why your friend were taking these drugs , so consult your doctor and get his opinion regarding if these were for any illness.
Good luck.
