My father has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He recently developed pneumonia and was taken to the emergency room and was given prednesone. He is now manic. Is there anything that can be done to counteract the prednesone? Would taking more depakote help? He has a time-realease depakote that he takes daily. Thanks for your assistance.
