Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the association of SNP of sodium channel genes with therapeutic response to Valproate in bipolar disorder patientsTimepoint: Baseline, 2nd week, 4th week and 6th week

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
a.To find out the percentage of responders and non-responders having SCN1A polymorphism by RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism). b. To assess the Medication Adherence among the bipolar disorder patients to the prescribed drugs c. To evaluate the percentage of bipolar disorder patients who are not responding to valproate. d. To assess the safety profile of Valproate when administered to bipolar disorder patients.Timepoint: Baseline, 2nd week, 4th week and 6th week
