My 1 year-old son was diagnosed with primary (tuberculosis)complex and he'll be undergoing medication for straight 6 months. I noticed he started losing his appetite for solid foods... any diet suggestions?

you can always try adding pediasure in to his diet several times a day. appetite and weight loss are common with the typical meds for that. if it gets to bad the doc can order other meds, like megace to stimulate appetite. good luck
