A randomized, double-blinded study by DelBello et al. From July 2002 to January 2004 was conducted on adolescents with Mania to compare the efficacy of the two co-typing and co-diapiron-de-valproic drugs. In this study, 50 adolescents aged 12-18 years with type 1, manic or mixed episode bipolar disorder were randomly assigned to treatment groups with quetiapine or de-valproic acid for 28 days. The response rate to relapse and treatment was significantly higher in the quetiapine group than in de-valproic acid.
A study by Langosch et al. Was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-drug treatment with quiithipine or sodium valproate in the treatment of fasting bipolar disorder. In this randomized study, 38 recurrent or relapsing-remitting patients with bipolar disorder in three centers in Germany were randomly assigned to one of the groups treated with kyitinopril, sodium valproate and treated with quetiapine or sodium valproate with a therapeutic dose 12 months were treated.
