  • Title: Inconsistent response to divalproex sodium in hemichorea/hemiballism.
    Author: Sethi KD, Patel BP.
    Journal: Neurology; 1990 Oct; 40(10):1630-1. PubMed ID: 2215961.
    Abstract:
    We report 6 patients with hemichorea/hemiballism of vascular origin who were treated with divalproex sodium (Depakote). Four of 6 responded initially. Marked improvement was seen in 2 patients only and in 1 of these hemiballism recurred despite continuing therapy. Divalproex sodium is not uniformly effective in the treatment of hemichorea/hemiballism.
