Valproic acid and secondary hyperammonemia
Neurology, 1981An 11-year-old girl with complex seizures was started on valproic acid (VPA) in addition to clonazepam and ethosuximide. Shortly thereafter, she developed marked hyperammonemia that was worsened by a protein load. The hyperammonemia improved somewhat when protein was not given, and it resolved on discontinuation of the valproic acid.

Five residents at a children's long-term care facility manifested hypoalbuminemia while being administered divalproex, although serum liver function test results and urinalysis results were normal.

Drugs, 1982Valproic acid undergoes drug-drug interactions with most of the commonly used anticonvulsants. Since it possesses a wide range of indications, concomitant use with other anticonvulsants, and hence interactions, are not infrequent. Many of these interactions are reciprocal and may have important therapeutic consequences.
