My mother has fallen in the nursing home and broken her hip. She is in the hospital awaiting surgery on Thursday, 7/11/96. I am concerned about drug interactions. They are giving her Darvocet for pain. Will that make her dementia worse? She is presently on Sinemet, Sinemet CR, Permax, Amantadine, and Trazodone. (She also takes Synthroid, Colace and Vitamin E.) What drugs should I tell them to avoid and what about anesthesia? Any other suggestions? Pam Dalby ([log in to unmask]) daughter of Ardith 74/9+
