An 89 year old female with controlled HTN and controlled hyperlipidemia but prediabetes. In addition she is treated for severe insomnia and an anxiety disorder. Her morning regimen is: Triamterene / HCTZ 37.5mg/25mg, Amlodipine 5mg, Olmesarten medoxomil 40mg, Isosorbide mononitrate ER 30mg, Rosuvastatin 10mg, ASA 81mg all PO QD..The evening dosing is trickier. Melatonin 3mg 1/2 half hour before bedtime. Trazadone 100mg 1/2 hour before bedtime, Also she takes Venlafaxine ER 75mg at 5pm All meds are po and daily. The question is which Rx is most likely to cause severe fatigue that dissipates at 5 or 6 pm every day? The fatigue is such that she barely keeps her head up before 5-6pm
