Suggest Remedy For Low Appetite During Fever In Kids
Hi, My son is 2 yrs and 9 months old. He has fever ranging from 99 degree to 101 degree. He has been advised one TSP crocin syrup every six hours. But the problem is that he is not eating anything. Can we give him crocin on empty stomach.

Thanks for the query.
In fever loss of taste and infection causes low appetite.
You can give crocin susp. every 6 hourly,try to give the suspension with some milk if he is not eating.
In fever he will also eat oatmeal and fruit when he's sick, popsicles are good for keeping baby hydrated and for bringing down temps.
Also try giving ors.
Hope i helped you.
