Topamax has been sold in the market since 1996. It has helped a lot of people suffering from migraine and epilepsy. Sadly, things took a different turn when birth defects have been found out to result from Topamax use.
Fourteen years ago, laboratory tests conducted on animals resulted to deformations on babies of pregnant rats. Despite the negative result, it was still continued to be sold in the market. If only the product has a warning label in order to inform its users on the possible side effects it can give , this would not have been a problem. Now, a lot of people suffered as a result.
Making a child suffer from the complications of having a cleft palate is one of the worse side effects of Topamax. This concerns pregnant women who have been taking Topamax. Problems with cleft palate arises because it can have a negative effect on one’s speech and eating manners. So, it is not really surprising when the child will be affected with problems with speech and health. There are still other side effects that Topamax can affect it’s users such as paresthesia, nausea, anorexia, fatigue, and memory problems. As obvious, the one who will suffer a great deal here is always the Topamax user.
A lot of people have been wanting to file for a Topamac lawsuit after studies indicating how dangerous Topamax is. This happened after the Food and Drug Administration demanded that the makers of Topamax should update its warning label. With a Topamax lawsuit, one may receive a rightful compensation in relation to whatever suffering he/she has to go through after using the said product. Of course, not every Topamax user is liable to receive compensation from the manufacturer. It must be medically proven how Topamax has affected an individual before one can receive compensation.
According to statistics, Topamax is one of the drugs that have the highest rate of giving fetuses some defects. Since, it is part of the manufacturer’s fault why they failed to label their medicine with warnings; it is only right that they should face the consequences. As of now, one of the best things an individual who has been affected with Topamax can do is to consult a Topamax lawyer about a lawsuit. And there is no need to be worry about the money because a consultation can be done for free.
