Sodium Valproate (Epilim) Claims
At Healy Law, we are here to help individuals and families affected by the adverse effects of Sodium Valproate (commonly sold as Epilim). Our dedicated team of experienced solicitors understands the significant impact this medication can have on patients and their loved ones. We are committed to securing justice and compensation for those who have been harmed.
What is Sodium Valproate?
Sodium Valproate is a medication widely prescribed to treat epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and certain migraine conditions. While it can be highly effective for managing these conditions, its use during pregnancy has been linked to severe risks. Studies have shown that when taken by pregnant women, Sodium Valproate can cause serious developmental and birth defects, as well as long-term neurodevelopmental conditions in children, such as autism and learning disabilities.
Who is Affected?
Families who may be entitled to a claim often include:
Children born with congenital disabilities or developmental disorders due to exposure to Sodium Valproate in utero.
Mothers who were not adequately informed of the risks by their healthcare providers before or during pregnancy.
Families struggling with the emotional, financial, and practical challenges of caring for a child affected by this medication.
