Im taking topiramate and i just found out that im pregnant. what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Topiramate: Stop taking the Topiramate immediately. Taking Topiramate in the first three months of pregnancy is associated with a higher risk of birth defects in the form of cleft palate. Consult your OB provider about the percentage risk to your fetus to make an informed decision.
