Dear Madam
Commonest cause of snoring is overweight/obesity. Other causes are related to nose and throat. If your husband appear to be overweight try low caloric diet, avoid high carbohydrate diet, ask for regular exercise. Chances that it is because of Mitrzepine is less but if you believe so then ask doctor to change the medicine and observe.
Hope your husband will recover soon.
