Hi, Rose,   I'm not a medical doctor, so I'm not qualified to comment on the various medications. What I did note in your question is that it seems like your mother is seeing several doctors. Is your mom seeing a hodgepodge of doctors for various ailments or do you have one primary care physician that you are using, and then supplementing with other doctors recommended by the primary care physician based on your mother's other health issues? What I found in my mothers situation was that she went to several doctors who kept adding lots of medications without talking to each other. We finally got this issue solved when we had a single primary care doctor who we worked with and went to concerning all medications prescribed by Mom's various doctors. So if I was in your shoes, I'd go back to whomever you consider your mother's primary physician and talk about the medications that have been prescribed and the issues she's experiencing.   Good luck!   Dorian
