[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 98188, member: 1550"] Hon, is he on 500 mgs. once or twice a day? I'm asking because 500 mgs. alone may be a bit low for good results. My son was on 1000 mgs. when he took it. I don't think Depakote goes by size. I think it's dosed according to blood level and how well the child is doing, but it DOES take a good eight weeks to see if it's working. If he has shown signs of a mood disorder before then I think you're a great mom for getting him help--sounds like he is seeing the best possible person. Keep us updated on your son, and I hope that this all works out for him. [/QUOTE]
