Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I think your brother needs to change the time of taking his medicines.
Bupropion- take in daytime not later than 4pm.
Paroxetine- not in day time. Take it at bedtime.
Zolpidem- only at bed time.
Simvastatin- in morning.

If he is following this schedule and still having problems, then you can consult with the treating doctor for change of medicines.
He must take balabced diet and multivitamin supplements.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.
