There actually is no difference, they are just different abbreviations that mean the same thing. The DR stands for delayed release and the ER stands for extended release, they both just denote that the medication is in a time released formulation, so it isn't released all at once, when it's taken.
You may also see it abbreviated as SR, for sustained release, CR for controlled release or just XR.
Divalproex, also known as Valproate Semisodium, is most commonly used to treat manic episodes of Bipolar Disorder.
It may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, weight gain and decreased coordination.
