Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for your query ,

Well I would not consider safe in going for any medication which deals with the hunger sensation and metabolism , as they will have undesired effects on the Brain and liver affecting daily normal functioning of the body.

Hence best and safe solution to gain weight would be by food supplementation with multivitamins and Proteins.

The simplest and absorbable form of these are available as powder, ENSURE or NUTRILITE any of both are good , the powder has to be mixed with the milk and consumed twice every day along with regular diet.These preparations contain variety of vitamins, minerals and proteins which are necessary for a healthy growth of the body.There are no side effects with this food and can be consumed at any time of the day.

Better exercise will help in incorporating the protein into the muscles adding up weight and shape to your body.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any follow up queries I will be available to answer them.
