My son has been on sodium volprate 300mg twice daily and he has decided to stop taking his medications what do i do?

Depends on condition: Valproate is used to treat Bipolar disease, but also Epilepsy and Migraines. If your son has been diagnosed with Bipolar or Epilepsy, then a consultation ASAP with his prescribing physician/counselor is necessary to find the reason for his noncompliance. If taking for migraines, the situation is not as dire and time can be spent determining if another treatment is better for him.
