possible side effects of depakote for adult male

Hello, I am concerned with my son's gross motor skills. He is 20 years old. They are deteriorating. I believe it is due to depakote, but I am interested to know if anyone has had experience with this drug in treating autism. He is also eating voraciously, but is extremely thin. May be 2 separate issues, but I am desperate to get help for him. I can explain more once I hear from the group. Thank you very much.
