Depakote ER (Divalproex Sodium) extended release tablets are used to treat various types of seizure disorders (epilepsy). It may also be used to treat manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder and to prevent migraine headaches. Divalproex Sodium is an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer. It works by restoring the balance of certain natural substances in the brain. Valproic acid is an anti-seizure medication that is used for migraine pain and sometimes used to treat chronic nerve pain. Other seizure medications include: Keppra, Lamictal, and Topamax
In a study (Clinical comparison of extended-release divalproex versus delayed-release divalproex: pooled data analyses from nine trials, 2004), MC Smith, F Centorrino, JA Welge, MA Collins… found that “The apparently improved efficacy may be due in part to better treatment adherence as evidenced by the overwhelming preference of patients for divalproex ER. Improved treatment adherence and more stable serum concentrations of valproate over.”
