General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

Valprol may cause side effects of sleepiness and tremors, which may interfere with the normal activity of patient. Usually these effects become less on its own gradually. Hence, any changes in the dosage must be done with consultation of your doctor. In my opinion, 500 mg daily dose to start with is inadequate. Daily dose to start with seems minimum necessary dose in your case.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
