where
IBW is ideal body weight in kilograms [IBWfemales (in kg) = 45 +
2.3(Ht − 60) or IBWmales (in kg) = 50 + 2.3(Ht − 60)],
Ht is height in inches,
other drugs can affect valproic acid clearance and steady-state serum
concentrations.28 Phenytoin, lamotrigine, rifampin, and carbamazepine
can increase valproic acid clearance and decrease valproic acid steady-
state serum concentrations
Cimetidine, chlorpromazine, and felbamate are examples of drugs that
decrease valproic acid
clearance and increase valproic acid steady-state concentrations.
Because valproic acid is highly protein bound, plasma protein binding
drug interactions
can occur with other drugs that are highly bound to albumin.
valproic acid half-life (t1/2) and elimination rate constant (k) estimates
using the following equations:
t1/2 = (0.693 ⋅ V) / Cl,
k = 0.693/t1/2 = Cl/V.
