First of all, I discovered that there have been a few reports of nocturnal enuresis (bed wetting) associated with Risperdal. This seems more likely to occur while taking an SSRI like Zoloft.
What are your concerns regarding Depakote?
Looking at the lists of potential side effects for any of these drugs can be unnerving.
Liver toxicity is infrequent and should be screened for using routine blood tests early in treatment. The same is true of thrombocytopenia (low blood platelets).
