Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
What the condition and symptoms she has may not be due to the medicine taken but it seems to be functional kind of symptoms, it is the geriatric kind of symptoms, even you go on changing the pattern of drugs she is taking she may likely to have the same symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
