I was weening for a week and a half and then my doc gave me the ok to stop them all together.
We tried many different dsees as well as trying the Depakote ER.
I feel better in the way of already losing some of the weight I gained on Depakote, I feel more energized at times and I have an easier time waking in the mornings. Yet I have this tightness around my neck and sometimes i cannot walk straight.. as if I was having small tremors in my legs...
Has anyone else hear withdrawn from Depakote? IF so- what was your withdrawal like?
> take a smaller dose of depakote, about half for a while. half again. then stop. maybe you will also find a replacement for it. or maybe a smaller dose will work.
