Taking Zefratol. Feeling To Have Put On Weight, Developed Pot Belly And Losing Hair. Also Taking Epsolin. Suggest?

Hi, I have been asked to take Zefratol and Iam newly introduced to this tablet. It is two weeks and iam continuously taking Zefratol 600 gms per day at night. I have a feeling that I have put on weight developing pot belly and also loosing hair. I have a doubt if it is the side effect of the newly introduced tablet. I am 37 years old and have 3 yr old girl baby. Iam also taking 200 mg epsolin tablet along with zefratol. I am under treatment since my childhood for fits.
