If taken by women when pregnant or nursing, serious injury to unborn fetuses can result in severe and permanent birth defects in their children. Birth defects suspected to have been caused by Depakote include, cleft palate, undeveloped heart conditions, hand malformations, abnormal ribs, undescended testes, spina bifida and even death.
