Stopping Depakote..anything to know?

Posted by Collete on August 14, 2001, at 2:16:29

I've been taking 250mg for a week and it really does NOTHING for me. It doesn't help me fall or stay asleep and personally, I don't think mood stabilizing is even what I need. I don't like the fact that I can't even have a small glass of wine if I want. I will talk with my pdoc this Thurs about trying to augment my Prozac in some other way. Can I just stop the Depakote or are there any withdrawal symptoms? Thanks, Collette

There can be withdrawal symptoms depending on circumstances. They recommend not stopping cold turkey.
