Study Summary

This proposal will test the efficacy of a promising pharmacological approach for the treatment of comorbid cocaine dependence and bipolar disorder. We propose a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled 12-week trial to test the efficacy of Divalproex sodium (Valproate) plus treatment as usual compared to placebo plus treatment as usual in decreasing cocaine use and stabilizing mood symptoms among patients with comorbid cocaine dependence and bipolar disorder. Treatment as usual includes the use of lithium carbonate for mood stabilization plus supportive psychosocial treatment.
