Q: my wife is been off suboxen for a week. she is not sleeping and feels like she is going crazy.

Will Depakote help her cope. She was originally given the medication for chronic migranes and she is 49yrs old. She is not sleeping well and is tired but can't sit still, her mind just keeps racing. Xanex has not help. If Depakote does help how long does it take to help? Does the drug have to build up in system before she feels any benefit or will she feel something after taking first dose.

Hi Steve,

 

That is a question outiside of my area of expertise or training. Best to discuss your concerns with your wife's doctor.
