In reply to Depakote or Zyprexa - HMMMM, posted by Momof1BPKid on October 4, 2003, at 1:28:20
Our 2 grandchildren who we are raising are both on Bi-Polar and ADHD meds. The grandson did great on Zyprexa and Concerta then the neuro Dr. put him on Depakote 2x daily for migraines. The migraines are gone....YEAH.... but we also stopped the Zyprexa...hoping the Depakote would "kill 2 birds with one stone". Well...didn't happen.....moods are worse, behavior worse, does anyone know if the 2 meds together would be harmful? I just hate giving him so much medicine, but it does not make him at all "zoned out"....just normal! Trying to stop the Zyprexa on our Grand-daughter also....because of weight gain. Maybe we should just try a morning dose? Any ideas? Really HATE the meds...but the Zyprexa REALLY seems to help both of them so much. What to do?
