Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I used to take divalproex but have not done so in quite some time. And the more I think about it, the more I think I remember my doctor taking me off of it because one of the side effects is kidney stones. I am just checking to be sure. YYYY@YYYY
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Don't worry about Divalproex, it hasn't been reported any case with kidney stones from taking this pill. Divalproex usually may causes headache, confusion, feeling of nausea, and diarrhea. In very rare cases it may causes kidney diseases, but not kidney stones.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
