Valproate Victims
Fighting for safety policies that work for the public: not businesses and politicians. Patients, victims, families first.
Birth Defects
Birth defects seen when mothers take valproate during pregnancy include:
-
spina bifida (where the bones of the spine do not develop properly)
-
facial and skull malformations (including cleft lip and palate, where the upper lip or facial bones are split)
-
malformations of the limbs, heart, kidney, urinary tract and sexual organs.
