is it my medication?- ulcers

Fri, 11/07/2014 - 19:10
I brush my teeth kinda hard. Anyway, 4 days into taking Valproic acid so a month ago I seem to get more ulcers in mmy mouth. They aren't sore and they are small. I did drink too much orange juice the other day...not sure if that can cause it. Like 3 days ago, had one, it healed but a new one is on my upper lip. Tomorrow, I go up to both 4 pills in the morning and 4 at night for Valporic acid. Should I call my doctor? I am also an 18 year old girl btw

Ive been taking 2000mg a day for a long time. Have had no problems. Maybe just contact the doc. Or look on webmd for side effets?
