Brief Answer:
Pantoprazole D 40 mg will be helpful

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your query and concern.

The health issues which you are currently experiencing are strongly related to drug side effects of amitriptyline and chlordiazepoxide.

These drugs are known to produce side effects termed as 'anticholinergic side effects"

They produce sensation of indigestion,constipation and cramps.

I strongly recommend you to take tab pantop D 40 mg once in the morning every day on empty stomach for 3 months until the completion of treatment.

This drug will relieve almost all your symptoms.

These side effects need not necessitate the discontinuation of treatment at the moment.

Please note the above drug has to be taken under strict medical prescription.

Thank you
