My Son is now 4and half yrs old. He had Convergence when he was one yr old and second time when he was 2 and half yrs old in which he has fever of more than 103 degree and his eyes were wide and teeth and body was still. Doctors asked us to go for EEG which was abnormal and since he is 2 and half he is being taking Valparin 200 which is recommended by the doctors and he has to take for sometime more may be till he is 5 yrs old. Doctors had told us that after taking Valparin he will become implusive, Now my son has become very implusive, restless, short tempered, impatient etc. Please let me know if it is sife effect of Valparin 200 and also we want to know after stopping Valparin what will be the affect, Whenever he gets fever it immediately goes in the brain and he has convergence. After stopping Valparin will his fever be in control.
Valparin contains Valproic Acid, it is commonly used to help prevent or control seizures and as a mood stabilizer.
It can have an effect on brain function, so yes, it is possible that it may be causing his impulsiveness. However, such an effect should taper off, as his body gets used to the medication. If it doesn't or starts getting extremely out of hand, you should contact his doctor, as he may require a dosage adjustment or a switch to a different medication.
AS to stopping it, that depends on when and how it is done. If it is just suddenly withdrawn, rather than having the dose tapered, it could result in a rebound effect that may cause him to have more seizures, so you must carefully follow the doctors instructions for duration of use and stopping the medication.
