Once the tablet reaches the stomach and intestine, Divalproex Sodium releases valproate. The exact way valproate works has not been established, but it is thought to act in epilepsy by raising the level of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, a chemical messenger that helps settle overactive nerve signals. In this way it helps to keep seizure activity under control and to steady mood during manic episodes.
