At DrugWatch.com, we aim to educate the public about side effects and interactions associated with thousands of prescription and over-the counter medications. We are currently working to spread awareness about Topamax, an anticonvulsant medication that has been linked to several serious birth defects, including cleft lip and cleft palate, when taken by pregnant women. Recent data demonstrated a 1.4 percent presence of oral clefts in infants exposed to topiramate during pregnancy, while infants exposed to other similar anticonvulsant medications presented a 0.38 percent and 0.55 percent prevalence of oral clefts.
