What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Depakene is a prescription anti-seizure medication that may be prescribed for treating epilepsy or as a medication to prevent migraine headaches. Depakene may also be indicated for treating the manic phase of bipolar disorder, and there may be other off-label uses for treating mental health or mood disorders but only as specified by a physician. This medication works by re-establishing appropriate balances of brain neurotransmitters and it is designed for long-term maintenance when taken for treating seizure disorders.

You can buy Depakene with a doctor’s prescription at your local pharmacy, and your best price on it will be when you order medication online from Canada Drugs Direct.

Directions

Your dosage for Depakene solution will be determined based on your age, weight, medical condition, and response to any ongoing treatments. You can take this medication with or without food.

It is important to not stop taking this medication suddenly. If you need to stop using it you should discuss a gradual reduction program with your doctor, and especially if you are taking this medication for seizure prevention.

Ingredients

The active ingredient in Depakene solution is Valproic Acid.

Cautions

Tell your doctor if you have any history of liver disease, kidney disease, pancreatitis, metabolic disorders, dementia, chronic dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, or alcohol abuse before beginning on Depakene.

Be careful to avoid injuries causing cuts or bruises while using this medication.

This is something you can discuss with your doctor if you are currently using or intend to use any of these medications.

Side Effects

Depakene side effects are uncommon, but some users may experience diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, hair loss, blurred or double vision, menstrual period changes, ringing in the ears, shakiness (tremors), unsteadiness or weight changes.
