Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this drop in weight and the symptoms that you have reported. Though your weight has dropped, it is acceptable for your height looking at the body mass index. Lymphadenopathy is not a diagnosis and your doctors should tell you what precisely the problem is and what treatment plan they are executing. It could all be due to the illness and treatment would resolve the problem and there would be no need for any extra tablets to address this. If we never solve the root cause of your symptoms and weight loss, all efforts would not be durable. F
For now, figure out what the root cause of these symptoms and weight loss is and get it addressed instead of considering other options. I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
