Hi welcome to healthcare magic forum,
Rahul you need not to worry at present because still there is chance of your height to increase because your bony epiphysis has still not fused as you are 19 years, you will continue gaining weight till the age of 25-26 years.
secondly no medicine is available for increasing height only one thing can help like:-
1 Daily exercise aerobics no weight lifting,
2 Balanced nutritious diet,
3 Vitamins and minerals,
4 Avoid smoking and alcohol,
5 Drink daily 3-4 liters of water,
6 Take more of salads,fruits,nuts,milk,eggs,green leafy vegetable in your diet.
Sure this will help you.
Regards,
Thanks
