A recent NIH-funded study investigated the impact of fetal exposure to two common antiseizure medications (ASMs), lamotrigine and levetiracetam, on children’s neuropsychological development. The study found that children whose mothers took these medications during pregnancy did not show worse neurodevelopmental outcomes by age 6. This research provides reassurance about the safety of these ASMs in terms of long-term neuropsychological effects for the child.
