Elicea contains escitalopram. It is not a "steroid" drug. Escitalopram is an antidepressant in the group of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs). One of the side effects of the preparation may be weight gain.

If you observe weight gain, I encourage you to consult your doctor. You can also take advantage of a teleconsultation via e.g. the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I also encourage you to report the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over the medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
