the first packet of depakote i was given, i had i think, in that box, fourty, maybe less. and they were definately depakote, cause when i first got it, i did the read the instruction part and all that milarky.
today, for the first time in weeks i have paid attention to what it says on the foil of the tablet packet thing... the bit that breaks for the tablet to come out, and instead of saying depakote 250mg.....
it says.... Omeprazole 40mg.
My prescription definately said depakote, and so did the second box I had, which had summit like 98 in there... so i have taken 98 tablets, thinking they were depakote, with moods going like mad... them saying i have no mood disorder....

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
it explains a hell of a lot though. depakote helped me two years ago.
this time, at first but then not at all!!!!!!
I'm on Depakote, Effexor and Seroquel at the moment. You may get reflux with these, or a combination of them. I end up taking an Omeprazole every couple of days to help my stomach.
That's why you've been prescribed them
none of my prescriptions have said omeprazole... only depakote and fluoxetine and recently zopiclone. but now thatll change to.
but ive never been prescribed omeprazole. i always read what theyre prescribing me cause i dont trust them!
jeeze!! i cant believe this!! haha!
On the plus side, I don't think they will be doing you much harm.
theyve taken me off depakote now so i guess it doesnt matter. but if they decide in the future i need a mood stabilizer, this will explain why depakote didnt help like it did last time
