Suggest Treatment For Confusion And Hallucination In An Elderly Person

My mother is 99 and has been showing the following symptoms the last few days: confusion, seeing people who are not there, headache. She does not have slurred speech. Her stomach has been upset. YYYY@YYYY is my email address. We took her to the doctor last Friday and thought maybe it was a UTI and he started her on an antibiotic.
