Question 1

My mom was admitted to the government hospital a couple of days ago because she had a really bad cough and her oxygen level was super low, like around 80 when we got there. The doctor said its a lung infection and gave her a prescription with some meds and injections. After taking just one dose, her blood pressure and pulse started going all over the place. I attached the prescription here. I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure these meds are okay to continue with. What do you think?

Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.
