About this study

However, the ANSM sent an alert document in August 2022 because there are still patients on valproate. In addition, there were 32 births taking valproate to mothers with bipolar disorder in 2018. The risks of exposure during pregnancy which occur in 10% of exposure cases are: congenital malformations; neurodevelopmental disorders including autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit disorders more or less hyperactivity, language disorders, motor disorders, mental delays; reduction in social, attentional, motor and language abilities; a lower level of education.
