Abstract
This is the first attempt to assess the use of AEDs in a prospective study of women who are pregnant but do not have active epilepsy. Although underpowered, this study suggests that women taking AEDs for non-epilepsy indications have a similar risk of having a child with a CM as compared with women taking AEDs for epilepsy. Larger numbers are required to investigate the risk of AED-associated malformations in this important group.
