FDA: epilepsy drug Topamax increases risk for oral birth defects
New data suggest that the epilepsy drug Topamax (topiramate) and its generic versions increase the risk for the birth defects cleft lip and cleft palate in babies born to women who use the medication during pregnancy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said Friday in a statement.Before prescribing topiramate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], approved to treat certain types of seizures in people who have epilepsy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], health care professionals should warn patients of childbearing age about the potential hazard to the fetus if a woman becomes pregnant while using the drug,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the FDA said.
Topiramate also is approved to prevent migraine headaches, but not to relieve the pain of migraines."Health care professionals should carefully consider the benefits and risks of topiramate when prescribing it to women of childbearing age," said Russell Katz,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], director of the Division of Neurology Products in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. "Alternative medications that have a lower risk of birth defects should be considered."
Cleft lip and cleft palate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], collectively called oral clefts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], are birth defects that occur when parts of the lip or palate do not completely fuse together early in the first trimester of pregnancy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a time when many women do not know they are pregnant.The defects range from a small notch in the lip to a groove that runs into the roof of the mouth and nose,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], possibly leading to problems with eating,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], talking,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and to ear infections. Surgery often is performed to close the lip and palate and most children do well after treatment.
Data from the North American Antiepileptic Drug (AED) Pregnancy Registry indicate an increased risk of oral clefts in infants exposed to topiramate during the first trimester of pregnancy. Infants exposed to topiramate as a single therapy experienced a 1.4 percent prevalence of oral clefts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], compared with a prevalence of 0.38 percent - 0.55 percent in infants exposed to other antiepileptic drugs.
Infants of mothers who did not have epilepsy and were not being treated with other antiepileptic drugs had a prevalence of 0.07 percent. Similar data from the United Kingdom Epilepsy and Pregnancy Register supported the North American AED Pregnancy Registry data.According to the FDA, before starting topiramate, pregnant women and women of childbearing potential should discuss other treatment options with their health care professional.
Combining sneaker classics has been a common habit of Jordan Brand in recent years, and the CMFT series is another example of that work. For the Air Jordan CMFT Air Max 12,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Jordan Brand combined the sole of the Nike Air Max 97 with a low-cut version of the Air Jordan 12 (XII). They are available in multiple colors, and like the recently released Jordan CMFT Max 11, have been receiving a favorable response.
