My daughter aged 8 can't concentrate on her study since last 6 months. Whatever she read she forget it just after one or two days. She is trying hard for study but even after adopting so many processes of study she failed to recover herself. She is normal without having any injury or disease. She takes part in games and dance and sparing time for practicing these. Now her final examinations are just one month away. Please suggest a suitable medicine to help the poor girl.
