Lightbulb I have searched twice...

and I cannot find Depakote/causing neuropathy link.

However, Depakote depletes l-carnitine and that reduces mitochondrial
functions. It also depletes folic acid.

There is nothing on PubMed to explain it...but there is one paper that
Depakote was not tolerable in the HIV community.

There are even papers showing it HELPS PN.

Of course, there are always things not reported...so there really is no
definitive answer.
