Want this question answered?
Yes it was first prescribed for seizures, and later for Bipolar disorder. Answer I have epilepsy and take 2 500mg pills a day. Has helped me but can be used with other epilepsy medications to help improve the loss of seizures. I am also on Lamictal and Keppra.
can a person take melatonin and depakote,and will there be a reaction
It's the depakote that causes weight gain! Have your doctor find something else to replace it.
Well, Bipolar Disorder, is much more severe than Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit Hyperactivty Disorder (ADHD), so the answer to this question is, 'no."
just as the person below said...YES you can take them together. i take 2000 mg of depakote a day and a 1mg of xanax whenever i need it. yes it is ok to take xanax with depakote. i take 1000mg of depakote er daily and 3mg xanax daily. only take xanax if prescibed to you or in extreme panic situations. never recreationnaly. withdrawels are a bitch if you get addicted
yes
Can I take phentermine while taking Lithium for Bipolar disorder? Mood stabilizers often cause wieght gain. I know I gained 30lbs. I have Bipolar disorder also. Wieght gain is not an option for me so my Dr. is working with me. Tell your Doc, there are other meds. out therel.
what does the depakote do if i take one of these?
How much you take depends on your weight.
I don't recommend it, I did so, and experienced self-induced seizures. You can take Depakote with Tramadol as long as you don't exceed more than 3 a day. I am on both meds and the pharamists told me that and I have lived by it, and I have not had seizures but then again I am taking Depakote for BiPolar Disorder not epilepsy.
Not advisable. It will trigger mania in a person with Bipolar Disorder.
shove it down LOL!
