Indications
Divalproex is prescribed for the management of seizure disorders, mental and mood conditions, and as a preventive measure for migraine headaches. Its mechanism of action involves restoring the equilibrium of specific naturally occurring substances in the brain.
Uses and Dosage
Take this medication orally once daily or as instructed by your doctor. If you experience stomach upset, it is acceptable to take it with food. Swallow the tablets whole and avoid crushing or chewing them, as doing so can result in the rapid release of the entire dose, increasing the risk of side effects.
The prescribed dosage of this medication is determined by various factors, including your age, weight, medical condition, response to treatment, and concurrent use of other medications.
Regular and consistent use of this medication is crucial to derive maximum benefit from it. Remember to take it at the same time every day to maintain a constant level of the medication in your bloodstream.
If this medication is prescribed for seizures, do not discontinue it without consulting your doctor. Sudden discontinuation of the drug may exacerbate your condition. Your dose may need to be gradually reduced under medical supervision.
