Hi, I am 42 years old male and I started to feel pressure under right side of my ribcage. I went to see my doctor and when he made ultra sound of my abdomen he told me that my liver is enlarged and pressure which I feel is caused by it. He also ordered me to make blood test and now I am waiting for results. I would like to know if this symptoms may be caused by Depacote which I am using.

Hi, I am also using Depakote and my liver enzymes are slightly elevated. My doctor told me it is possible that liver may react on Depakote so I guess symptoms you have described may be caused by Depakote you are using too. However it would be good to consult you doctor about future taking of Depakote and doses which you will take.
