Which medicine? Valporic Acid? Or something else? Also, asking questions approximately drug reactions on yahoo answers is like playing russian roulette. Just stupid.

Were you diagnosed as anemic? Whether so, be careful with the dose of iron. (remember the supreme court judge who was rushed to the hospital recently? It was a reaction to too much iron, if I remember correctly. Personally, I have witnessed my wife reacting poorly to larger doses of iron. So, ask your doctor for a more stomach-friendly and reasonable dose amount of iron.

xheezy, I have epilepsy and give myself a b-12 shot every month, I would check with my physician or pharmacy to be sure before you take it. Good Luck Rita V
