The Topamax attorneys at Morgan and Morgan are available to review claims from women who took the drug or its generic version topiramate during pregnancy and delivered children with Topamax cleft palates or cleft lips. In March 2011, the FDA announced that new data revealed an increased risk of oral clefts in infants born to women taking the drug while pregnant, and as a result of this information, the Topamax attorneys at Morgan and Morgan would like to hear from women who delivered children with Topamax birth defects.

The
Topamax attorneys are extending a free online case review to mothers who took Topamax during pregnancy in light of the FDA’s safety announcement regarding the risk of Topamax cleft lips and cleft palates. Data from the North American Antiepileptic Drug Pregnancy Registry revealed that 1.4% of infants exposed to Topamax during pregnancy were born with oral cleft birth defects, compared to .38% to .55% of infants exposed to other anti-seizure medications. The rate of oral birth defects was much lower, .07%, among children born to mothers who were not taking epilepsy drugs while pregnant. Due to the increased risk of
Topamax birth defects, the FDA decided to reclassify the drug into pregnancy category D, indicating that human research has revealed a potential risk to fetuses, though use of the drug may still be acceptable in certain circumstances.
