Hi. Welcome To HealthcareMagic
Bone growth stops by 21 years of age. Medications, like, Growth Hormone does not help. But there are cosmetic
surgical procedures to increase bone growth.
I don`t think/agree any medicine can increase height at this stage i.e. after 19years. Only stretching exercise can help little bit . Some doctors do bone lengthening surgery ,but that is not advisable
