Depakote is helping and working

Depakote is working and only been on it a week. Anyone else take 250mg of Depakote twice daily? And how long before side effects if any occur? Or would they have occurred by now everyone is different in that aspect but just curious so I can watch for any new side effects may not have any at all which is a plus in my book.

I’m glad that you are doing well on Depakote @psychward101

I’ve been on Depakote for decades, it’s been a lifesaver for me.

You are on a beginner’s dose of Depakote, usually Depakote starts to become fully effective at 1000mg daily.

This is my current dose, 1000mg

Side effects like weight gain and sedation increase at doses over 1000mg

Good luck @psychward101
