Is It Safe For An 86 Yr Old To Take Ultraset After A Fall?

my mother is has been taking ultraset for the last two days for a fall - she has a shunt and parkinsonism and currently taking senamets, xanax 1 mg and digoxin.. She has become weak and can hardly use her walker. Is ultraset safe for her and is this a side effect.? She is 86 years old

Hi, Thanks for using HCm
In my opinion ultracet is one safe drug to take keeping in view the age of the patient and the dose of the drugs in it. Its a very low dose yet potent pain killer with very less side effects in elderly people. She can continue taking it for around 5-7 days at a stretch.
