I am being told by my son s pediatrician that my 19 month old is underweight and he is under the expectations of the growth chart. this worries me. he was prescribed cypro..something and I put it on his bottle at night but I don t see any improvement. what else can I give him to open up his apetitte?
Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case, I would come up with three possibilities, these include:The first possibility is of LIV 52 syrup 15-30 min before meal. It will stimulate secretion of bile and increase appetite. The second possibility is of enzymes syrup as it may cause complete digestion and absorption food and feeling of hungriness. The last possibility is of any probiotics(Darla or Vinyl 1 capsule daily for 1 month) which may help to normalize flora of intestine. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you and child good health and good appetite.
