Use of antiepileptic drugs in women of fertile age.

CONCLUSIONS: The overall use of AEDs in women of fertile age and pregnant women has increased in the past 16 years, especially due to an increased use of lamotrigine. However, valproate use in pregnant women and in younger women of fertile age has become less frequent. FUNDING: This study received funding from the Lundbeck Foundation, the Danish Epilepsy Association, the Central Denmark Region and the Novo Nordisk Foundation (NNF16OC0019126).
