Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

She is on right combination of antidepressant. Just wait for few more days. Sometime, in old age, medication takes time to show response. Sometime, due to underline brain dysfunction or dementia, patients get depressive symptoms. In that case, it become difficult to get complete recovery. Better to get her MRI scan done to rule out any feature of dementia. That would help you to get clear knowledge about prognosis. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
