The Australian Pregnancy Register (APR) is an independent, observational register, collecting information about pregnant women with epilepsy, treated and untreated, to assist in determining which anti-epileptic medications (AEDs) are safest for the baby while protecting the mother from seizures.
This is a voluntary, nationwide study that is enrolling women who are currently pregnant or who have given birth recently (infants up to
12 months of age) in the following categories:
> Women with epilepsy taking AEDs;
> Women with epilepsy not taking AEDs;
> Women taking AEDs for allied conditions.
The APR is independently funded and needs your help!
Your donation will support the costs associated with enrolling women in this study and subsequent data entry required to build and maintain this register.
All donations over $2 are tax deductible.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
