A member asked:
Is there any safe anticonvulsant i can use when pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: There are only few meds 100% safe in pregnancies. All others carry some risks. In the anticonvulsive therapy always the benefits should be weighted against the risk of neural tube defects. Discuss all these details with a maternal fetal medicine specialist.
