On March 4, 2011 the FDA issued a safety announcement regarding the risks of women taking Topamax (topiramate) while they are pregnant. The announcement is based on new information from human data that indicates topiramates such as Topamax may cause birth defects that include cleft palate when taken by women during the first trimester of pregnancy.
If you took Topamax while pregnant, personal injury lawyers O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath would like to invite you to contact them for a consultation. You could have just cause to file a Topamax lawsuit for compensation to assist in paying the costly medical bills needed to treat your child's birth defect.

Note that in their safety announcement the FDA stated that there are cases where the risks of taking Topamax, and other topiramates, by pregnant women may be acceptable due to the specific benefits of the drug in the treatment of epileptic seizures. Topamax is a topiramate drug that is used, either alone or in combination with other drugs, in the treatment of epileptic seizures and to prevent migraine headaches.
