Hi Sherry,
No, I haven't heard about a new depakote- but if you learn the name I would be really interested since that is the most effective med for me when manic. As far as your instability- most bipolar experts wouldn't prescribe an antidepressant to a person with bipolar disorder (and I have definitely seen more than my share of experts). Perhaps this is something you want to discuss with your pdoc. I have heard lithium works well as an AD, I'm sure a lot of people will attest to that on this board. How much topamax are you taking? I have just started and I'm up to 150mg and having some memory problems, did you? Take care, Judy
