Brief Answer:
no further medications required
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for using health care magic.
Multivitamins and iron supplementation are usually prescribed as appetite improving medications in children. In my opinion these supplementations correct the deficiencies in the child and improves the appetite and general immunity. The gain in weight and the strength is achieved with proper food and physical play of the child.
I suggest you offer nutritious food to your son and let his appetite guide his intake. No other medications are there to be used on the daily basis for his strength and weight gain.
I hope I have helped you.
If you have any other query please feel free to ask.
Thank you
