Depakote Tetralogy of Fallot Attorneys
Tetralogy of Fallot is often associated with “blue baby syndrome,” or cyanotic syndrome. This condition results in insufficient oxygen in the bloodstream. A healthy heart can regulate the flow of oxygenated and un-oxygenated blood, but in individuals with tetralogy of Fallot the heart cannot maintain its normal circulatory process. The mental health drug Depakote has been linked to birth defects such as tetralogy of Fallot.

Tetralogy of Fallot Symptoms
Tetralogy of Fallot affects the heart, one of the body’s most important organs. However, the symptoms are not always apparent at birth. Children who suffer from tetralogy of Fallot often go undiagnosed until the disorder manifests itself through symptoms such as:
- Cyanosis, the development of bluish skin or blue patches of skin
- Heart murmur
- “Clubbed,” or swollen, fingers or toes
- Impaired growth
These symptoms can be managed, but doing so is often a costly and lifelong process. Your family should not have to pay for a pharmaceutical company’s negligence. Many families have sued the makers of Depakote for the harm the drug caused to their children.
