Paxil Can Be Linked To Cases Of Spina Bifida In The Children Of Many Former Female Patients

A significant number of children have been born with spina bifida and other neural tube defects that were likely the result of their mother using the antidepressant Paxil during the early stages of the pregnancy. Spina bifida is among many medical conditions that research has linked to Paxil use and why the FDA now strongly warns against continued use of the medication if the patient learns they are pregnant. But these risks of Paxil use weren't made public for over a decade after the antidepressant was released on the market.

So while the FDA finally made the move of reclassifying Paxil as a Category D drug in 2005, for far too many families, the harm has been done and they are now living with the consequences. If you have a child that was born with Paxil birth defects, then you may want to consider moving forward with a prescription drug lawsuit against the company that manufactures the drug, GlaxoSmithKline. The company has faced numerous Paxil lawsuits in recent years and has often been forced to pay financial compensation to victims like you that have children born with serious health problems, like spina bifida, which require costly medical care.
