Aren't these drugs too much for a 76-year-old?

Hello my mother with Parkinson's due to anxiety, neurosis is written: Hydroxyzinum 10 mg, Asertin 100 mg, Ketrel 25mg. I have the impression that not only is she not "calm", but she is lethargic. Isn't that too much for a 76-year-old? The family doctor evades that it is like a neurologist enrolled and will not speak, and he wrote down before the neurologist. And who to ask?

It is very difficult to assess whether prescribed medications "are too much" without in-depth knowledge of the case. The combined intake of drugs containing quetiatherapy (Ketrel) and sertraline (Asentra) may increase the sedative effect. At the same time, the prescribed dose - 25 mg - is not large, and the increased sedative effect - intended. It is important that all medicines are prescribed by the same doctor, familiar with the patient's condition. You have some observations, but it is equally important how the patient feels after medication, whether she feels relief in terms of anxiety symptoms. The right specialist in the therapy of Parkinson's disease is a neurologist. Anxiety disorders are dealt with by a psychiatrist.
