this site is not medical professionals, so we cannot say definitively why you are gaining weight and having these side effects, however, yes it could be from medications. I am going to post what I can find out on each one for you, along with common side effect information.

Nexito contains the active ingredient Escitalopram, this is an antidepressant.

These are well known for causing weight gain, as well as nausea, drowsiness and headaches.

Ganaton contains the active ingredient Itopride, this is used to treat various gastro-intestinal symptoms.

Sorry, but I cannot find side effect information for this one.

Softovac is a supplement that is said to treat gastro-intestinal issues as well, it contains:

cassia fistula 0.5 gm, fennel , ispaghula 2 gm, liquorice 0.25 gm, senna 0.75 gm

It acts as a laxative.

Side effects may include: nausea, diarrhea and gas.

That said, it does look like Nexito is the only one that can have weight gain as a side effect, so it is possibly the culprit.

For the tiredness though, that could be caused by any or all.

Have you tried speaking to your doctor about these issues?

Instead of all these pills, why not try Kefir? It has done wonders for several people I know with IBS (including my husband who was also lactose intolerant but can take milk products now). Overall it keeps ones stomach in top shape as well as possibly boosting immune system and other benefits.

dear sir.Finally I got an appointment with my Doctor.

He asked me to continue with the same medicine Nexito for 2 more weeks , but this time he prescribed Nexito 10 instead of Nexito 5.

I think these medicines are controlling my anxiety to some extend, but it gives me feeling like something is supressing my fast thoughts in my mind and this is not going to be the case if I don't take the medicine.

Now I try to come out of tension which has no any reason, but some times this becomes difficult....

Thanks and Regards
