Depakote Information

Depakote Details (Brand and Generic)

CanadaPharmacyOnline.com offers the brand Depakote (also called Epival) from Canada by BGP Pharma and the brand from India by Sanofi-Synthelabo. The generic Divalproex Enteric Coated tablets come from Canada by a different manufacturer. If you order anti-epileptics medications such as Depakote ER and Keppra, you must ensure that your online pharmacy is reputable, licensed, and follows all safety and regulatory standards.

Dosage

Depakote and the generic Divalproex Enteric Coated tablets are available in 125 mg, 250 mg, and 500 mg strengths; please refer to the official website for more dosage information.

Usage

Depakote (divalproex sodium) is used to treat seizure disorders (epilepsy) and certain psychiatric conditions (manic phase of bipolar disorder) and to prevent migraine headaches (source). It belongs to the class of medicines known as antiepileptics (AEDs), anticonvulsants, or mood stabilizers (source). It works by increasing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels in the brain, a neurotransmitter that calms nervous activity.

It is crucial to take the medication exactly as your doctor prescribes or refer to the patient information leaflet. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.

Side Effects

The common side effects of Depakote may include bruising or bleeding, diarrhea, drowsiness or dizziness, hair loss, headache, nausea, vomiting, and weight changes (source).

Contact your doctor right away if you have any severe side effects such as:
• Chest pain;
• Depression or mental/mood problems;
• Easy bruising or unusual bleeding;
• Fast/slow/irregular heartbeat;
• Fever, swollen glands, or mouth sores;
• Severe allergic reactions such as difficulty breathing, swelling on the face/tip/tongue;
