The sad truth is giant pharmaceutical companies and a handful of medical device manufacturers have put the public at risk by bringing dangerous or defective products to market. The Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning about the epilepsy and migraine drug Topamax due to its increased risk of causing birth defects. The FDA's Topamax warning came after recently released data showed that women taking the drug while pregnant were 21-times more likely to give birth to a child with cleft lips or cleft palate deformities.

If you were pregnant and took Topamax your child may also suffer from other congenital birth defects, including spina bifida, genital birth defects, limb malformations, hypospadias, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), craniofacial defects, heart defects, lung defects, neural tube defects. If you were subscribed this drug while pregnant you may be entitled to compensation, call a law firm that has the experience resources to take on the giant pharmaceutical companies such as Johnson & Johnson.

In addition to the FDA's Topamax warning, the FDA also upgraded the drug to its Pregnancy Category D, showing that the drug has a proven risk of causing birth defects and other risks. Because the oral cleft defects associated with Topamax occur early in pregnancy, the FDA also advised women of childbearing age who are taking Topamax to talk with their doctor about alternative treatment options. If you are currently taking Topamax please contact your doctor immediately to discuss these risks.

In May 2010, two Johnson & Johnson subsidiaries were ordered to pay an $81.5 million fine after pleading guilty to illegally promoting Topamax for off-label uses. Neither company has announced plans to issue a Topamax recall in the wake of the FDA's birth defects warning.
