Effexor + Bromazepan

I have irritable bowel syndrome (ibs) and it is turning my life a biss mess, and i'm on college now. I went to a doctor and he putted me on Effexor 75mg(once daily) and bromazepan 3mg( once daily). Will this do harm to my general health?
I'm really afraid, of losing memory, getting fat and teeth cavities...

Thanks for your advice. I have been on this meds for one week beacause of anxiety realated to ibs. I must say now that i'm feeling very well by now, ibs is almost gone and i'm much more relaxed. The point is... Do you think that i need effexor if i'm feeling fine already? I know that is a powerful drug and it and what scares me the most is the day i''l try to get off it. People talk of brain zaps and things alike and i'm scared that it can destroy my beautiful mind.
What is the recommended time for a therapy with effexor ( for a case like mine) ?

just dont abuse the benzo and take it when needed and ul be fine, most antidepressants are prescribed with benzos becuase the first month of you taking an antidepressant, effexor in particular will be rough but ul be fine
