Brief Answer:
There is no harm! Monitor only at this time!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

These medications have flexible dosing and really constitutes no immediate danger. Monitor her only for now and report any abnormal observation to me. The greatest fear would have been breathings difficulties with morphine but this is quite rare.

Keep me posted about this. I wish her well.
