Depakote Anencephaly Lawyers
Anencephaly is a fatal birth defect that has been linked to the drug Depakote. Anencephaly develops while fetuses are still in the womb. The disorder inhibits development of the brain and skull, resulting in babies that cannot survive outside the womb. The emotional toll on parents of anencephalic infants can be devastating. Although the causes of anencephaly are unknown, the drug Depakote has been shown to increase the likelihood of the disorder.

Depakote and Anencephaly
Depakote is a mental health medication. Many people have used it to treat and control their mental health concerns. Your doctor could have prescribed Depakote to you if you suffer from:
- Bipolar disorder
- Epilepsy
- Neuropathy
- Major depressive disorder
Depakote also increases the risk of birth defects, some of which are life-threatening. Anencephaly is a fatal neural birth defect that irreparably damages the brain of a developing fetus. Mothers who took Depakote and whose infants exhibited anencephaly may be able to seek compensation from the drug’s manufacturer.
