Abstract
Nine patients treated with valproic acid had low plasma fibrinogen concentration and other liver function abnormalities. Several patients also had a low platelet count and prolonged bleeding time. The abnormal values returned promptly to normal when the drug therapy was discontinued or the dosage reduced. The liver function abnormalities are consistent with a direct, dose-related hepatotoxicity.Entities:
