How is Cenobate different than Depakote? I see Xcopri is excreted in urine rather than liver, so perhaps that's one good reason to consider over Depakote, especially if someone presents with elevated ALT in the absence of other causative factors. As a mother of a patient w autism and epilepsy, I find the entire epilepsy drug development in USA depressing, vague, inefficient and absurd. It's 2022 and we're still guessing. And every epilepsy drug carries high risk of exacerbating autistic behaviors. Maddening.
Interesting As someone who went from Dilantin to trilantin/trileptal to sonogram to keppra to back to sonogram... I don't think you can get anything newer than Dilantin outside of the US.. People think that if you're in Germany or Greece or chili or something that you can get sonogram... But all you are offered would be Valium and Dilantin maybe. ( I traveled and asked all over/) But who said the world was gonna be fair right? :-)

Is this drug taken along or as an adjunct with other med? Is it only for focal seizures?
I take a bunch of other drugs, oxcarbazapine and lacosamide along with this one
Not in the VA formulary as of 11/2022. All vets, go to outside Neurologist so they give it to you if it is best. Corpsman Up!
