View company portfolio →What VALRATE (Divalproex sodium (valproate semisodium)) is used for
Divalproex sodium is a form of valproate, an anti-epileptic and mood-stabilising medicine. In the UK it is called valproate semisodium or semisodium valproate. It is made of sodium valproate and valproic acid joined together, and the body uses it as valproic acid. It calms electrical activity in the brain. It is a prescription medicine that must be started by a specialist. Valproate can seriously harm an unborn baby, so there are strict rules about its use in anyone who could become pregnant.
- Episodes of mania in bipolar disorder (the UK licensed use for valproate semisodium, when other treatments have not worked or cannot be used)
- Epilepsy (seizures)
- Preventing migraine attacks in adults (not for treating a headache that has already started, and never in pregnancy)
Get medical help straight away if
