Frequently asked questions about Valproic Acid
Q. I have been taking DEPAKENE SYRUP for a year, and I did not have any episode of seizure during this time. For how long should I take it to cure my epilepsy completely?
DEPAKENE SYRUP does not cure your condition, it only prevents the seizures from occurring. Therefore, you will have to keep on taking it, maybe for years. Consult your doctor if face any problems while taking this medicine.
Q. What happens if I stop taking DEPAKENE SYRUP?
You should not stop taking DEPAKENE SYRUP suddenly. It should be discontinued gradually. Stopping it suddenly may increase the chances of recurrence of seizures. Always consult your doctor if you feel the need to stop taking this medicine.
Q. I have gained weight after I started using DEPAKENE SYRUP. Is it because of this medicine? What should I do?
Yes, weight gain can occur with the use of DEPAKENE SYRUP. To control your weight, you should have a healthy balanced diet and exercise regularly. Talk to your doctor if you have any other concerns.
Q. Can I take birth control pills while taking DEPAKENE SYRUP?
Yes, DEPAKENE SYRUP does not have any effect on the working of birth control pills. However, contraceptives (birth control pills) may interfere with the working of DEPAKENE SYRUP and seizures may occur. It is important that you inform your doctor that you are using birth control pills. Your doctor will keep a track on your response to the treatment and monitor the DEPAKENE SYRUP levels in your blood levels.
Q. Is it safe to take DEPAKENE SYRUP for long term?
Many patients can safely take DEPAKENE SYRUP for a long time.

If you are taking DEPAKENE SYRUP for a long time, get regular check ups done for bone health.
