A. Yes over the period it is going to be fine on its own so you do not have to worry about that these kids pick up over the period they take some time but definitely pick up well enough all the growth and every day so if your doctor advises you to go ahead with any treatment on medication continue with that but I can tell you that over the period kids do start feeling better with itWrite Your Answer Here
