Weakness, Severe Constipation. Taking Oleanz Plus. Treatment For Constipation?

Hello My wife is on Oleanz Plus. She is feeling weakness all over her body and Constipation as well. She also did speaks about Suicide a few days ago but I made her deflect from that topic. I consulted the doctor and she gave her some medicine for constipation but it is persistent even after a month. Can you let me know what to do now? I mean how to wade off these side effects?

Hi, many thanks for the query!
You need to do- Stool (R & M), CBC, ESR.
Investigations to rule out coeliac disease, Hydrogen breath test to exclude fructose/lactose malabsorption.
Do Yoga & Meditation.
Avoid milk & milk products, take a low FODMAP (Fermentable, Oligo-, Di-, Mono-saccharides And Polyols) diet, High Fibre diet, green leafy vegetables.
Drink plenty of water.
Continue your Oleanz plus with your Psychiatrist's opinion.
Take antispasmodics, antacids, stool softeners with your doctor's opinion.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Regards.
