It made me feel really sluggish the next day. It also made me nauseated. If you have had it before, and tolerated it, you may not have a problem. I just think that it is not appropriate to use an antipsychotic (for manic stage of bipolar disorder)as a sleep aid. My doc said that it "helps calm down the brain" poo poo, say I!
There are a whole lot of better meds with less "baggage" than Depakote. Unless you are bipolar, I personally would not think you should take it.
