Pregnancy and Migraine

I have some few friends that are pregnant right now and there’s no doubt that they are so happy and thrilled to be in that state. Though there are times that they don’t feel really well most especially in their 1st trimester, their pregnancy is something that they have planned and prayed.


Certainly, they’ve been frequently visiting their doctors for their check up to ensure both their safety. I’ve been reading on some blogs and sites that if you’re pregnant and have migraine, you should never drink Topamax drug. Why? A recent studies shows that it can cause birth defects to your baby. I’m sure you don’t want to your baby to have a cleft lip and palate deformities caused by this drug.

Pregnant Women: Read This

We all know that pregnant women should never take medicines without the supervision of their doctors but just in case you took or were given Topamax for your migraine then chances are you’ll experience some side effects. The worst part is that, your baby might have birth defects.


In the recent years, research found out that taking Topamax when pregnant caused birth defects such as the cleft lip and palate on the baby. This result to the filing of Topamax lawsuit by women who found out their babies got birth defects. Anyone is encourage to consult and file law suit if they’ve become a victim of this drug.


So pregnant women, be extra careful!
