How To Increase Appetite In Lactose Intolerant Kid?

HI, MY son is 2 yr and 8 months old. He is just diagnosed as lactose intolerant. I am giving him totally lactose free food but he is still not eating a lot. His weight and height is going below average. He is never interested in food. Is there anything to increase his appetite?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

It's always wiser to experiment with taste buds of toddler's, experimenting what they like . It's like trial and error method.
Apart from it, I would suggest Syrup Aristozyme 5 ml thrice a day. It will be helpful

Take care
