Hello i have problems with gaining weight always have and i have to gain weight fast for tryouts. is there any medicine i can be prescribed for this?

Not a safe strategy: to pursue. Medication to gain weight is not recommended for non-medical purposes and poses more problems than it solves. I'm not sure what sport or activity you are pursuing but if you are not normally 'physically fitted' to that activity perhaps it might be wise to re-align your pursuits to some more amenable to your physique.
