Abstract
Relying on a comprehensive investigation, the author proposes the typology of depressive disorders in epilepsy by identifying ictal, preictal, interictal, and postictal conditions. Risk factors for depressive symptoms are considered. Main approaches to therapy for depressions are offered. Particular emphasis is placed on the normothymic activity of a number of anticonvulsants. Valproates, and depakine in particular, as a normothymic agent are shown to be beneficial in treating affective disorders.
