Hi,
I have gone through your post,Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and a dry mouth. Serious side effects can include liver problems and regular monitoring of liver function tests is therefore recommended.so other than monitoring LFT no other big issues with valparine.
Hope this helps you.
