FDA Issues Warning Linking Topamax to Birth Defects

In March, 2011, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning about Topamax due to recent data linking it to several Birth Defects. The FDA's study showed that women taking the drug while pregnant were 21-times more likely to give birth to a child with Cleft Lip or Cleft Palate deformities.

Pregnancy Category D

In addition to the FDA's Topamax warning, the FDA also upgraded the drug to its Pregnancy Category D. If a drug has a proven risk of causing Birth Defects or other risks it is classified as a Category D drug. Because the Oral Cleft Defects occur so early in pregnancy, the FDA also advised women of childbearing age who are taking Topamax to talk with their doctor about alternative treatment options.

Topamax may also be linked to several other birth defects including Spina Bifida, Genital Birth Defects, Limb Malformations, Hypospadias, Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN), Craniofacial Defects, Heart Defects, Lung Defects, and Neural Tube Defects. If you were prescribed this drug while pregnant you may be entitled to compensation for your child's injuries.
