Is there anyone out there who is taking Depakote? Depakote is used to
control seizures in epileptics. It is often used an anti-depressant
drug or in my case to prevent migraines. One of the side effects is
weight gain - lucky me! Has anyone taking Depakote had success (or
not) on Adkins? I was thinking about going to see my Dr. and maybe
switching to Topamax (Topiramate). Topamax is also used to control
seizures in epileptics and to prevent migraines but its side effects
is moderate to extreme weight loss. Has anyone taking Topamax had
success (or not) on Adkins? I can't function without Depakote as it
has worked WONDERS in preventing migraines. Topamax is said to be
equally effective. This is only my second day of induction. I have
been taking Depakote for about 3 months now and have noticed only
slight weight gain.
