He is taking Triglimprex 2 which can cause weight gain and also extreme hunger if his sugar is getting low in between. Buy a standard glucometer, check periodic blood sugar and consult an Endocrinologist.

Your father needs to check his blood sugar levels, in case he is eating more. Some of the diabetic drugs your father is taking may cause gain in weight, but most of them lead to loss of weight.
