A Study in Stable Epilepsy Patients Comparing Brand and Generic Divalproex Sodium Extended Release Tablets

Study consists of a screening visit, four treatment periods and a final follow-up visit.
Each treatment period consists of a four night in-house stay followed by two outpatient
visits. Each treatment period will be separated by a washout period. During each treatment
period, safety evaluations will include vital signs, physical exams, safety laboratory
tests, weight measurement, electrocardiograms, adverse event collection and concomitant
medication recording. Pharmacokinetic blood samples will be collected during each treatment
period. Seizure activity will be recorded in a seizure diary during the study. A
standardized high-fat, high-calorie meal will be served prior to each dose during each
treatment period.
