Suggest Treatment For Depression

my mother who is 63 has been prescribed Deanxit, clonotril, Sertraline 100mg for her depression and Zolfresh 10mg for her insomnia. It is causing excessive sweating from the head and extreme weakness. Can i cut down some medicines or are there any other alternatives?

Hi,
It seems that all problems she is having due to chronic depression.
Do not change or alter the dose of medicines without consulting psychiatrist.
Consult again psychiatrist and take his advice.
He might add some Arip type of medicine to give more relief.
Ok and take care.
