> Thanks Ritch and Judy. I'm seeing my pdoc this evening, so I will mention these ideas to him. It would be great to get back on the depakote, but I just can't deal with the weight gain. Thanks again!

Hi Audrey

I'd be interested in knowing what your pdoc thought of the ideas presented to you. I am BP-II and I'm currently taking 1,500mg of Depakote daily. I've gained about 30 lbs while taking it and can't seem to get them off. I'm toying with the idea of lowering the dosage of Depakote and augmenting with Topomax.

Good luck in finding the right drug mix that works for you.
