Valproate Risk Reduction & Family Redress

Women continue to be prescribed Valproate, a drug known to cause birth abnormalities, during pregnancy. Diligent prevention and patient safety measures, as well as, family redress must be implemented.

 

Members of the Organisation for Anti-Convulsant Syndrome Ireland were very welcome in the Seanad Gallery today for the Valproate debate.
