It's an antihistamine with muscle-relaxing, anti emetic,anxiety reducing properties. It's a relatively older drug. If the client who you are taking care of is elderly it could be causing confusion, nightmares excitement.....If they are experiencing any of these or the like maybe the Doctor should be notified they could be having a negative reaction to the drug if they have only recently started to take it!
