I recently posted a discussion on Depakote. My mom's friends grandaughter was told by the child's dr. that she had Epilepsy and put her on 150 mg of Depakote twice a day. I was told today that the parents have an appoit. with a specialist in St. Louis Mo. The specialist told them not to give her the meds at all. He wants to see her first. Thank God we told her to get a specialist for this child. Thank you all for your advice on this.
