Thanks MrsD for doing that checking. and yes, i ran into "grouped" AED lists too... sigh.

regarding the folate, the deal was different. it is not a direct depletion due to drug metabolims. what i read - and i only found it in one place... you can kill me now i don't know if have it but i have to go to pdoc's - is that its absorption is inhibited by depakote. so if one were on depakote for a lenghy period, their folate tissue stores would gradually become depleted.

Mari... thanks. i am glad you foudn that helpful. :) :hug:

i have to run

pdocs
 

Hi,

My first guess to that is that pdocs are a little bit lazy.

Perhaps also they don't trust the supplements as they are not regulated as to dose, quality, . .
