Pediatrician 's  Response
Recent studies suggest that Valproic acid is effective for the prophylactic management of severe cyclic vomiting syndrome with 85% of patients achieving at least a reduction in the frequency of attacks of vomiting.
As with any medication, the reported adverse effects may be seen with Valproic acid and your doctor will monitor for that.
