A. can give appetite stimulants are usually e not required because when they are given may cause increase in appetite but have got side effects. it is advisable to increase the appetite of the child naturally with the help of plenty of water and juices from natural fruits as well as by play with the child in open environment appetite stimulants are usually shortcuts which might increase the appetite for the child for a short time but gives side effects to the child
