A member asked:

Can depakote harm your liver and stomach?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: Depakote may affect the liver in some patients. Md may monitor your liver enzymes as a guide. Certain formulations of Depakote may affect the stomach. Discuss with your md. Taking medication with food may help.
