migraine prevention
"I have been on Depakote ER for three weeks.  I've had 4 migraines during this time, which is less than before the Depakote ER.  My GP had me on three different medicines for prevention but the neurologist switched me to Depakote ER.  I've had a little weight gain. The problem is I'm on weight watchers and should be losing weight. There have been times where my hands have felt shaky (similar to too much caffeine intake).  I think its also effecting my vision. I'm going to call the doctor and ask to switch to something else. Basically its helped reduced my migraine frequency but not enough to live with the side effects."
