Dicorate Er 750 Tablet 10 contains divalproex (750 mg), which has several actions on the body:

• Increased Brain Concentrations of GABA: The therapeutic effects of divalproex are believed to be associated with increased concentrations of Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. GABA is a chemical that sends messages between the brain and the nervous system, and its increased levels can help control seizures.

• Effects on GABA and Glutamate: Divalproex may affect both GABA and glutamate, two significant neurotransmitters in the brain. These effects could contribute to its ability to manage manic episodes in bipolar disorder.

• Influence on Sodium Channels: It's suggested that divalproex's therapeutic activity might also involve its effects on voltage-sensitive sodium channels in our brain cells.
