Dicorate ER 500

Dicorate ER 500 from Sun Pharma is an extended-release tablet used to steady the brain's electrical activity in people living with seizures, bipolar disorder, or migraine.

• Epilepsy and seizure control
• Mood stabilisation in bipolar disorder
• Migraine prevention

Divalproex sodium is an anticonvulsant that boosts a calming brain chemical called GABA, helping to settle overactive nerve signalling and prevent the surges that trigger seizures, mood swings, or migraine episodes.

Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not crush or chew, as the extended-release coating spreads the dose evenly through the day. Take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

• Nausea or stomach upset
• Drowsiness or tiredness
• Tremor
• Weight changes or hair thinning

Not suitable in pregnancy due to the risk of birth defects. Share any liver disease, bleeding disorder, or family history of metabolic conditions with your doctor. Regular blood tests may be needed.

Keep in the original strip below 25 degrees Celsius, away from moisture and out of reach of children.
