Useful medication
Dear sir
i used medicines for some psychiatric problem. Like Valprol cr, Olanex plus, Olapin plus.
Now my problem gone,
doctor also told me 'it's enough stop the medication'
so i stopped medication, iam not using now.
However.. here...
i will ask you one thing.
while iam using this medication i gained good weight. And i reached my ideal weight as per my height. it is good for me. iam very happy with this.
Because iam underweight before using this medication.
With this medication i gained good weight. This medication worked very good on me.
(Except few side effects like hair loss, skin blackening, stomach fat etc)
Almost three months over. now again i decreased my weight. Almost iam underweight now.
So i decided, again now i want to consult that doctor. And i want to use that medicine again to increase weight.
is it ok ?
is there any problem ?
Can i use that medicine again ?

The medicines which were prescribed to you are controlled medicines which cannot be purchased without a prescription. There is a reason for it - because they affect your brain. It's not recommended to play with the brain just for weight gain. There can be other repercussions.

Those medicines aren’t for weight gain. Consult a physician for evaluation and treatment decisions.
