Mother taking A LOT of drugs?
by Jaimey- Claire
Hi,
I have a question.
My mother is bipolar and obviously takes a lot of the medication for her illness but at the same time she is taking:
* Adco-sinal co, about 4 boxes of 20 tablets a month.
*Adco-dol the dosage is unknown.
*Lendal, a big bottle holds a 100 tablets and she takes one big bottle and one little bottle.
Plus all her bi-polar meds. All the meds I’ve listed have one common ingredient, which is codeine phosphate. Her symptoms are:
* Sleep walking
* Slurring
* Irrational behavior
* Injuring herself without knowing what she is doing.
* Falling asleep while smoking
* Cravings
* Hearing
* Lack of coordination
I’ve confronted her about it and she denied it flat out. She’s convinced her side of the family that I am lying about her problems. She will not let me talk to her psychologist at all. When I talk to her about it, she becomes angry.
I don’t know what to do. What do you advise me to do?
Kind regards,
Jaimey- Claire
