depakote, weight gain, hair loss

Posted by Suze on February 1, 2001, at 0:28:40

I just started depakote Jan. 11. Diagnosed bi-polar, rapid cycling. Was wondering if there's anyone out there who's been able to control the weight gain (I was on serzone before and gained weight from it, which seems to be a continuing pattern with depakote). Also, I've noticed some of my eyelashes falling out. More than would be considered "normal." This is scaring me! If I'm going to be gaining weight and losing all my eyelashes, what's the point? I'm beginning to think I'd rather go through the manic episodes and depressions than have to deal with these side effects. Any opinions??? Thanks.
