Hello dear,welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think you should check her liver and kidney function since it is metabolised in liver and excreted in kidneys.
Check liver enzymes and bilirubin, also creatinine and total blood count.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
