hi
I have been on 1000mg (500x2) Blood level 50, for consistantly over a year. I experimented with up to 1500, but there was no observable difference in mood compared to 1000. I have lost twenty of the forty lbs i need to lose. This is probably do to cutting out sodas, drinking water, really trying to walk every day (ha ha) and watching the food i eat. When I started it, BECAUSE I was overweight, the doc was very concerned that i watch it. And that we would adjust or stop.
It does knock off the highs, and my lows arent so low, but I havent found a solution yet. I will not stop taking it in the near future.mouse with a small gold coin stamped "depakote"
