Valproic acid is a commonly prescribed drug used in various conditions including seizures, bipolar disorder, mood disorder, and migraine headaches. Confusion and lethargy among patients on valproic acid need urgent attention as it can cause increased levels of ammonia, which can lead to the development of cerebral edema and even cerebral herniation in severe cases.
