It's commonly observed issues in growing age and known as Growing pain. More than medicines special attention should be toward balance diet for growing age group children .Special attention should be given to protein requirement in daily diet, Vit.D and calcium supplements should be taken under medical supervision.Never to forget simple stretching exercises.
Hope this is helpful.
