Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. He can continue with the medication. However, weaning should have to done as nutritional deficiencies is possible cause at present.
2. Ragi malt, fish and red meat along with eggs can be crushed and given.
3. Avoid any sort of infections, as infections can lead to further malnutrition and further complicate management of anemia.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
