the short answer to your question is this: any prescription medication should only be taken as prescribed. that means it should be taken at the dosage prescribed and it should be taken at the times prescribed. any deviation from the dosing schedule could be harmful in different ways and different degrees. unfortunately i can't answer questions about specific doses of medication because i'm not a doctor or pharmacist. if you have concerns about your medications including divalproex you can consult your pharmacist or medical provider. he or she can advise you about specific dosages. all the best to you!
