Hello, Duggar! How are you?
The elderly are much more prone to experiencing side effects and to experience them more intensely, so it could cause a lot of dizziness, drowsiness, nausea and sedation.
Thus, they shouldn't take anything that hasn't been prescribed for them by their doctor for their safety. What dosage has been prescribed?
Is there anything else I can help with?
Its hard to say. A 90 year old might want to try a better therapeutic medicine?
