Thousands of children were born into avoidable harm because the system chose silence over honesty with sodium valproate.

Now the gov't must choose justice over delay.

✌️In France we have a fund of compensation. UK must do the same ! #Dépakine #Epilim #Valproate #justice @apesac1

We will continue to highlight the devastating impact of sodium #valproate and the profound consequences it has had on families across Ireland.

@oacsireland That would be putting it mildly after what my child has gone through over the last few weeks. I am absolutely devastated.

#Valproate
It is "disgraceful" the Government has failed to respond to recommendations made more than two years ago to compensate victims of a medical #scandal that left thousands of babies #disabled, England's first Patient Safety Commissioner has said.

'Fruitless anxiety' seriously? A child born with lifelong disabilities is better than disclosing epilim side effects! Enough to give mum endless lifelong anxiety

@griffinniamh great article outlining the long painful process of getting accountability for our children. @karen_keely and Theresa have done trojan work for years getting this over the line but it shouldn't have so long! @HSELive @CarrollJennifer @SBH_PAG @scolionetwork

@scolionetwork @SBH_PAG @UnaKeightley @CarrollJennifer @SimonHarrisTD Although parents of children with #scoliosis and #spinabifida have welcomed the statutory inquiry, the stuttering progress of the #valproate #inquiry should sound a cautionary note. https://t.co/1yhRbhiTCZ

A significant & alarming discrepancy exists between the thousands of babies exposed to #valproate between 1975 & 2015 & the remarkably low number of Fetal Valproate Spectrum Disorder (#FVSD) diagnoses identified since 2019.

@AsIAmIreland You need to acknowledge the 'misinformation' in your statement. my kids autism was not natural but caused by a drug called epilim that doctors knew about for decades

@oacsireland I know my view won't be popular but it's time valporate is phased out of the market! there's too many side effects

[Irish Times Health+ @IT_HealthPlus]

Why is there an inquiry into the use of epilepsy drug sodium valproate? https://t.co/IyUvTycRMx

[Anita @Anitafacs]

@oacsireland @roinnslainte Saw this at the gp surgery, my son wasn't impressed when I told him it's called epilim in Ireland and the tablets are purple, not white
