Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to the 'Ask a Doctor' service.
I have read your question and below is my opinion.
The aristozyme syrup is fiber supplement and other medicine is antacid.
So they will improve digestion and gastric emptying.
Hence it has having role in improving appetite.
In the viral fever sometime appetite might be remain suppressed for few days due to different cytokines release.
So you can give her prescribed drugs and wait for few more days to improve appetite. Don't worry.
Hope I have answered your question
Let me know if I can assist you further
