A member asked:
Can i take laxatives while on depakote? i've read online that depakote has multiple side effects including constipation.

Yes: You might be better off by making sure you have adequate magnesium . 500mg magnesium citrate twice /d would be ok. Increasing your water intake and roughage, avocado, sweet potato, green vegetables . Best Wishes
