Hi dear
epilex chrono during pregnancy may affect the child in the form of neural tube defect.
but in pregnancy initial 3 months it should be stop by deciding that which is more imp baby or disease affection over baby..
so it is combine action of gynecologist and neurologist to decide on risk ratio..
It is important to talk between gynecologist and neurologist
thank you
