Has anyone taken depakote and if so what have been some of the side effects you've noticed? I have somewhat long and very thick hair and since taking depakote every time I wash my hair I seem to lose maybe 15 to 20 strands of hair each time. Then when I comb it I lose 15 or 20 more! Pretty soon at this rate I'm afraid I'll be bald. My hair has really thinned out. The depakote has helped somewhat with the headaches, but I'm not going to take it anymore because of the hair loss. I've tried other medications and they all seem to have side effects that I don't want to deal with also. I'm just about tired of trying everything! Any suggestions?
