I really appreciate your concern, your mother seems to have multiple medical condition in my opinion only most needed medicine needs to be given else stay away her from medicine no need to put her on sedative in geriatric age group certain phenomenon are very likely to happens and it needs to be taken as granted like bad dreams, sleep disorders more sleep hope this information helps.
