[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 61769, member: 2423"] Sounds as if you've gotten a positive response to Depakote. Is he currently taking a therapeutic dose? You may have to wait a few more weeks (6 to 8 total) to see full effectiveness. My son's inattention and depression were not addressed by Depakote at all, although his mania was stopped dead in its tracks. We switched him over to the mood stabilizer Lamictal to address the depression and added a low dose of Lexapro. He also takes a low dose of Focalin XR (10 mg) to help him focus on school days.
