Sodium valproate is a relatively classic drug for treating epilepsy disorders. It is suitable for many types of seizures and has relatively few side effects and is safe when taken for a long time. However, it is important to pay attention to the side effects of valproate over a long period of time, which may lead to liver function impairment, elevated glutamic aminotransferase and glutamic oxalacetic aminotransferase, and bone marrow suppression, such as leukopenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia, so it is important to monitor blood and liver function tests while taking valproate. Long-term use of sodium valproate may also lead to drowsiness, hair loss, weight gain, and some gastrointestinal adverse reactions, such as nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal indigestion.
