I'd say that currently, my other medicines seem to be working okay. However, I'm kind of not happy about my Depakote ER. Is there a better medicine out there that is better than Depakote ER. If so what is it? I'd say that my mood changes. I'm wondering what is better and other there?

Also, I do have OCD and I tend to check things. I'm on Strattera for ADHD or ADD.

These are my current medications.

Strattera 60 mg capsule

Clozapine 100 mg tablet

Depakote ER 500 mg tablet, extended release

Levothyroxine 75 mcg tablet

Metformin 500 mg tablet

glycopyrrolate 1 mg tablet

Thanks

I'm on trileptal 1200mg. Very exhausted on it but it helps my mood so much.

switched to it from Depakote because the Depakote was causing weight gain.
