Hello,
Thank you for trusting HCM

All these medications can be taken together.
However, of all these medications Oxybutynin is the one that can cause mental confusion especially in elderly.
Infection can also trigger confusion and delirium in elderly.
Please be advised to follow up with the treating physician to see if the infection is responding to antibiotics and stopping oxybutynin.

Hope this answers your question
