A member asked:

Hi.i visited my dr for my headache, nausea and vertigo he gave me propranolol and valproate sodium 200, but i'm not sure about having sodium kind pills?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Do not worry: The name "sodium" in a medication is just a name of the chemical, it does not mean that the pill has extra sodium or salt in it, it will not raise your blood pressure. The names with "sodium, " "potassium" or "chloride" do not mean that these are actual ingredients that you need to be concerned about.
