Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I am sorry I don't post much here, nor am I of any support to everyone. I have a question about weight gain and periactin. Kedhar has been on periactin for 3 months so far. He may have gained about 1 pound so far. I haven't measured his height, but he seems to be gaining height. He keep calorie count every day and he is up from 100-1100 calories a day to 1200-1300/ day in 3 months. That is a 20% increase. He weighs under 11 kgs. The following are my questions 1. I have read that a normal child needs about 90-100 cal/kg/day. Do RSS kids need more (not just for catch up, but even otherwise?) 2. Will I see weight gain right away or will there be a couple of months delay? Thanks, Malathi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
