Is This A Safe Combination?

Hi! I am a caregiver for someone who s mother has me give her a concoction at night (by g-tube) of phenobarbital (4 tsp.), benidryl (sp?) (2 tsp.), Miralax, infant gas drops (5), liquid melatonin (4 dropperfuls), a crushed Herbalax, and sometimes ibuprofin on top of that--plus she gets Nexium. (Please pardon any spelling errors.) Do you see any problems with combining all this? I don t feel quite right about it--especially with all the red coloring in it.
