As a doctor, I understand that you have been taking antidepressants such as Lobazam 10mg per day and Pacidep 12.5mg for the past 3 months. It's important to note that these medications can cause gastrointestinal side effects, including diarrhea, constipation, and changes in bowel movements. Foamy and frothy stool is not a common side effect of antidepressants, and it's essential to investigate the underlying cause of this symptom. It could be due to various reasons such as dietary changes, increased intake of fatty or greasy foods, infections, malabsorption, or other medical conditions. It's crucial to have a detailed evaluation, including a physical examination, laboratory tests, and imaging studies to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing your foamy and frothy stools. In the meantime, I recommend making dietary modifications such as avoiding high-fat and greasy foods and increasing your fiber intake. You can incorporate foods such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes into your diet to promote healthy bowel movements. If the symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend seeking medical attention and discussing the potential need for a medication review or any further investigations to determine the underlying cause of your foamy and frothy stool.
