Please talk to doc: 1st! Depakote pus abilify (aripiprazole) is a combination usually reserved for bipolar disorder. That is a lifetime illness. And if you only take a psychostimulant for ADHD, it is known to aggravate mood swings. Please do not change anything until you discuss a plan wth your psychiatrist.

Need evaluation: Abilify (aripiprazole) and Depakote are not usually used to treat symptoms of ADD. You should speak to your prescriber for an evaluation for ADD.
