Just curious - are your pills made by Abbott Labs? I was mentioning this the other day in relation to how yucky Wellbutrin SR smells, but I've had 2 meds from Abbott that smelled almost like candy - very pleasant. A few months ago I got some Depakote ER samples (Abbott) from my neurologist. I have to say I was disappointed when I opened the first one and went for a sniff and didn't find anything much. I guess it's one of those small pleasures in life :)
And do they have something they actually call "Sprinkle"? With the new Klonopin "Wafers" I sense a trend here! Reminds me of something I watched once - someone was making a drug cocktail "with Percocet jimmies" (it was a comedy). That one still makes me chuckle.

> Janelle, I live in the US and I have got a bottle a few feet away from me that reads: "Depakote EC 125mg Take one tablet two times daily". I've tried the Sprinkle version of the 125's-the green and white caps with the white pellets inside? You can't smell the vanilla smell with the 125 Sprinkles or the ER versions. But my 125 EC tabs smell like vanilla like the 250 EC's I have. Whoa! So you are taking Depakote 250mg ER 3x daily right? That's a lurch!
