Hi,

Welcome to XXXXXXX

As your father is suffering with depression, you should please get him examined by a Psychiatrist and give him treatment for depression, as advised by his Psychiatrist.

As he is feeling uneasy, get his pulse, B.P. and blood sugar also checked.

For indigestion, you can give him Tablet Unienzyme twice daily after Lunch and Dinner.

For vomiting you can give him Tab Domperidone thrice daily, or on whenever required basis. Or you can give him Omeprazole with sustained release domeperidone empty stomach.

For loose motion, you can try two tsf of Psyllium (Isab gol) husk in curd twice daily. Give him plenty of water. Loose motions are generally self limiting. In case of no improvement consult a Physician.

If you have further query, please feel free to ask.

Wish your father speedy recovery.
