Interaction warnings

Carnitine + valproate

high

Valproate (valproic acid) depletes carnitine by sequestering it as valproyl-carnitine for mitochondrial transport and by inhibiting renal tubular reabsorption, which can impair the urea cycle and contribute to hyperammonemia, hepatotoxicity, and encephalopathy.
