Brief Answer:
Continue taking the prescribed medications

Detailed Answer:
Hi & Welcome.
I can understand your concern.

Librax (Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium) used as an add on therapy in the treatment of peptic ulcer and in the treatment of the irritable bowel syndrome.
Nexpro is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It blocks the production of stomach acid & hence prescribed for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and stomach ulcer. These prescribed medications are effective in the treatment of acidity related stomach problems like gastritis, ulcer and others.
Zapiz (Clonazepam) a benzodiazepine used for the sleep disturbances like insomnia.

I would like to know some more information to give you proper suggestion like

1. Do you smoke or take alcohol?
2. Do you have regular bowel habits?
3. Do you have problems like flatulence, distension, belching?
4. Do you take hot and spicy foods?
5. Do you have any stress or sleep disturbances?

Looking forward to receive your reply.

Regards.
