I think by looking at the roots of the name that what you are talking about is called divalproex sodium in the U.S. This is the generic name for Depakote. I could be wrong. I take it as a mood stabilizer for bp, but it is also a seizure med.

Either way my best guess is that they would keep on the epilepsy med that is working for you and add something else to help stabilize your moods.

Not sure how that would work out, however, because my younger brother is on epilepsy meds and he cant even take over the counter drugs without an interaction. On Christmas break all it took was taking his meds a little later than usual and taking a Tylenol Cold pill to send him into a seizure when getting ready for work the following morning. He had been seizure free for months before that.

Hope this helps. Good luck and best wishes
