A member asked:
My 91 year old mother takes .5mg ativan at night for anxiety. what cough medicine can she she safely take at night that will not cause exacerbated symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Would suggest getting her doc involved as much more will be needed for a meaningful answer. Other comorbid conditions and related treatment, possible source for the cough that will have to be covered first, previous side effects or allergies will be needed along with an exam and in order to make sure she is treated properly.
