Abstract
Pancreatitis is a serious adverse effect of valproic acid (VPA). We report a case of VPA-induced pancreatitis in a dialysis patient. A brief review concerning VPA toxicity and acute pancreatitis in chronic renal patients is presented. We suggest that end-stage renal disease (ESRD) should be considered another risk factor for VPA-induced pancreatitis.Entities:
