Call your doctor, get him out of bed and tell him what is happening. Vomiting is a known side effect of depakote and is is one of the indicators that you need to call your doctor NOW!

Original response: Click on the link below. (This referenced the link "Depakote and Alzheimer's disease") From: Dan I added another link to an article about Alz and Depakote. To the original questioner: it is not clear if you are asking "will Depakote, used for something else, have a positive or negative effect on the patient's Alz?" or "is Depakote used as a treatment for Alz?" It does appear that Depakote is being used as a treatment in some cases. That would imply that it would have a positive effect on the Alz, if it was being used for something else - but obviously the doctor must take drug interactions into account, or over-medication if something else is already being used for the Alz. As an RN in a long-term facility, I have see Depakote used very successfully in patients with various types of dementia. It is usually used as a mood stabilizer to smooth out the extreme highs and lows (aggression and depression). Don
DEPAKOTE Generic Name: divalproex sodium (dye val PROE ex) Brand Names: Depakote, Depakote ER Sweating (usually with a fever) is one of the side effects of Depakote. Profuse sweating should probably be discussed with your doctor.
no, you would need a blood test for valproate to detect it, this not on normal toxicology panels.
Normal range is from 50 - 100 but it can go up to 125 without any worry. Anything past 125 is cause for worry. This is where you need to worry about being depakote toxic.
Strokes in and of themselves can cause the person to have seizures. Depakote is an antiepileptic med, so it helps reduce or eliminate the possibilty of seizure in those affected by strokes.
No, Depakote is not an MAO Inhibitor.
