Valproate-associated hyperammonemic coma in adults is a rare complication of valproate therapy and has been previously reported to occur in few days to years after initiation of therapy. We present a case of hyperammonemic coma induced within hours of initiating valproate therapy in a patient with plasma carnitine deficiency.
