Hello,
At your age of 25 years,it is not possible to increase the height.
Height of a person increases till the epiphyseal plates in the long bones don't fuse.
Once these plates fuse,growth of a person stops.
In males,these plates fuse by the age of 21 years.
There are no medicines which can increase the height now.
Thanks
