What is F.A.C.S?

Fetal Anti-Convulsant Syndrome is caused when a mother uses anti-convulsant medication during pregnancy.(also known as Anti-Epileptic Drugs, or AEDs.)AEDs are not only used to treat epilepsy but are also used to treat pain, migraine, bipolar, mental health and other conditions.

On one particular drug named Epilim (Sodium Valproate) - What we do know - is that all families impacted by sodium valproate have endured considerable hurt, grief, and distress, which was foreseeable, preventable, and reportable; they are the families who have experienced the suffering of Epilim (Sodium Valproate) which continues to this day.

Should you feel that you were on the medication and feel your child/children impacted please contact OACS Ireland and we will be able assist you and inform you of your next step should you wish to take it: Email address: info.oacsireland@gmail.com

Please Note: Do not stop taking your medication without advice from your Health Care Professional.
