  • Hello Hpickford

    I'm sorry to hear that your Mum is struggling so much at the moment. Is it her GP that's been prescribing her medication or is Mum's care being managed by a specialist team? 

    I'm sorry that I'm not able to help with an answer to your question but it may be worth speaking to our team of nurses. They may be able to give you some information and guidance. Theey're available on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 

    I hope that things improve soon. 
    Best wishes,
