Chemical compound
Valproate pivoxil (Pivadin, Valproxen) is an
anticonvulsant used in the treatment of
epilepsy.
[1] It is the
pivaloyloxymethyl
ester
derivative of
valproic acid.
[2] It is likely a
prodrug of
valproic acid, as pivoxil esters are commonly employed to make prodrugs in medicinal chemistry.
