"Children don't like to eat, let them take some appetite stimulants!" Many parents give their children digestive or appetite stimulant drugs without being as cautious as when giving them cold or fever medicine. Whenever their children have a poor appetite or eat too much, they go to the pharmacy and buy some for them. In fact, using digestive or appetite stimulant drugs is not as casual as parents think.
Before giving children digestive or appetite stimulant drugs, it is necessary to determine whether the child actually has a digestive disorder, and further clarify whether it is a functional or organic digestive disorder. If it is a functional digestive disorder, then it is appropriate to take digestive or appetite stimulant drugs.
Before giving children digestive or appetite stimulant drugs, it is best to adjust their diet first. You can reduce the intake of sugar and milk, eat small meals frequently to give the gastrointestinal tract a rest. In addition, the diet should be light, and the intake of fat should be limited. Excessive intake of fat can easily lead to digestive disorders as the excess fat cannot be digested by pancreatic enzymes.
