MONITOR: Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.

MANAGEMENT: During concomitant use of these drugs, patients should be monitored for potentially excessive or prolonged CNS and respiratory depression. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

Thank you for your reply. The “concomitant use of these drugs” was short term. From early August 28, 2011 to 1:20 pm August 29, 2011, an otherwise beautiful, warm summer afternoon. No longer any need for the recommended counseling.

But I do miss her terribly. Her photo sits on the desk in front of me, and to the left. It is one of those photos where the eyes follow you, no matter where you view it from. Even this photo projects her love and humanity.

I do miss her so.
