Can Tonoferon And Macalvit Be Given To I Year Old To Make Her Eat?

Hello doctor. My child is 1yr old. She is on breast milk completely. I have tried giving her cerelac n other home made food but she has one spoon of it only. Her weight was 8.3kg when she was 10months. She has just got her first tooth. Somebody suggested I should give her Tonoferon and Macalvit. But I don t know the dosage. Please suggest as I want my child to start eating.Regards Shefali

Pediatrician 's  Response
Thanks for the query.
You can give both the medicines in the dose of 3.5ml two times a day.
Hope you have tonoferon-pediatric syrup.
Also for improving appetite you can give cyproheptadine syrup 3.5 ml before food two times a day.
Reduce the intake of milk, biscuits, bread.
Hope i helped you.
I find this answer helpful
