We prove hyperstability results for the Drygas functional equation on a restricted domain (a certain subset of a normed space). Our results are more general than the ones proposed by Aiemsomboon and Sintunavarat ['Two new generalised hyperstability results for the Drygas functional equation',Bull. Aust. Math. Soc.95(2017), 269-280] and our proof does not rely on the fixed point theorem of Brzdek as was the case there. A characterisation of the Drygas functional equation in terms of its asymptotic behaviour is given. Several examples are given to illustrate our generalisations. Finally, we point out a misleading statement in the proof of the second result in the paper by Aiemsomboon and Sintunavarat and propose its correction.
