Tourette Disorder Treated With Valproic Acid.Ye, Lu MD; Lippmann, Steven MDClinical Neuropharmacology: Post Author Corrections: January 17, 2014 doi: 10.1097/WNF.0000000000000013 Case Report: PDF Only Abstract Valproic acid was successfully prescribed for a 10-year old boy suffering from Tourette's Disorder with a co-morbid bipolar diagnosis. Valproic acid has demonstrated efficacy in reducing the total number of motor tics, their frequency, intensity, complexity, and impairment in a patient who had failed to respond to numerous other medications. Valproic acid may be a useful agent to consider for children with treatment-resistant Tourette's disorder. Copyright (C) 2017 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
