Title: Depakote & melatonin?
Post by Luke63 on Mar 30^th, 2004, 9:49am

Listen..I've been on Depakote for amost 2 weeks now...up to 500mg a day now..then taper down in a few days. I really don't think this stuff is helpin....I'm goin like every other day on having about 3 bangers a nite. Anyone know about taking melatonin while you're on depakote...and also verapamil? Thanxxx...Luke

Oh boy... I just took my first dose of Depakote last night, and last night and today marks the longest period that I've had in six weeks of being pain free. I am also on 500mg/day. I'm so sorry it isn't working out for you... :'( :-[

After reading that verap/melatonin thread, I think this may be where I got my throbbing head this morning...
I haven't done depakote...
Have you tried prednisone, Luke?
