Hi,
Iron deficiency mainly due to poor oral intake or loss of blood in git secondary to warm infestation.
Give your child one dose of albendazole 400mg single dose and oral iron syrup. Give milk with jaggery and Green leafy vegetables.

If you agree my suggestion kindly rate me. Regards
Dr.Surendra
