Can Depakote Be Taken While On Imitrex Injections?

Hi my son suffers from cluster headaches. He was prescribed Topamax from his doctor and had a bad reaction to it ( severe depression, suicide thoughts). His neurologist just prescribed Depakote. He also uses Imitrex injections. Is this drug safe to take?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, Depakote may be taken while on Imitrex injection.

Since there's no documented evidence of any harmful interaction when these drugs are taken together, so Depakote may be taken while on Imitrex for cluster headaches.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
