Proud to be nominated for
“Community Organisation for Disability” the only active Charity in the UK supporting families both here and worldwide that now live with disabilities as a result of #Epilepsy meds taken in Pregnancy National Diversity Awards

It’s not been “underestimated” the regulators have known since licensing in 1973 the harm #valproate would cause to babies,yet they PURPOSELY hid this information & continued to do so until we janet williams MBE INFACT/FACSA Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust started our campaign It’s a Man made scandal The Pharmaceutical Journal

Today we janet williams MBE INFACT/FACSA Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust have written to the Health Select Commitee Health and Social Care Committee WinchesterMP about the lack of action with regards Redress for Babies, children & adults disabled by #valproatecrisis Department of Health and Social Care #compensationforvalproate

We janet williams MBE INFACT/FACSA Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust have submitted an FOI to MHRAgovuk MHRA Meds Safety as to there reasoning behind the new guidance with #Valproate and the Pregnancy Prevention Programme #valproatecrisis #compensationforvalproate

Clarity : We janet williams MBE INFACT/FACSA Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust have NEVER called for #Valproate to be banned, and as evidenced in the meeting do share the same concerns of the 2 consultant prescribing SUDEP Action

All regulatory decisions & responsibilities lie solely with MHRAgovuk

We Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust has had input into the Condition Insight Report for the benefit system, played a huge part in the Review Tweets & now work towards compensation with Department of Health and Social Care Maria Caulfield MP & Patient Safety Commissioner Let's not forget the disabled by #valproatecrisis

Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust Emma Murphy (INFACT) ☘️💕😘🦋 worked 10yr with many Govt bodies to better warnings, with NICE to update guidance, the EU Medicines Agency & @mhra towards the PPP for Valproate & the World Health Organization (WHO) to update the #ICD11 for diagnosis & Essential medicines list for guidance worldwide.

Yesterday in a letter to the Health Minister and Patient Safety Commissioner we janet williams MBE INFACT/FACSA Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust requested urgent intervention from the Government Shaun Lintern
