REMINDER - Marketing stop of Depakine (sodium valproate) 300 mg/5 ml syrup: beware of medication errors
As announced in December 2024, Sanofi Belgium has decided to stop marketing Depakine 300 mg/5 ml syrup as of 28 April 2025. Depakine's other oral liquid formulation, the 300 mg/ml oral solution, will remain available in Belgium. As the latter is more concentrated than the syrup and dosed with a different device, patients, healthcare professionals and parents need to be informed and prepared to avoid potential medication errors.
