Dicorate ER contains Valproic Acid, it is an anticonvulsant that's also used to treat some mood disorders and yes, it can cause weight gain as a side effect.

Learn more Valproic Acid details here.

The only safe things to really try to maintain your weight is to eat a healthy, low-fat diet and get plenty of proper exercise.

Your doctor may also have ideas that could help.

Are there any other questions or comments?
