    Valproate is known to be associated with an increased risk of congenital malformations, including coarctation of the aorta, when taken during pregnancy. Coarctation of the aorta is a narrowing of the aorta, the main artery that carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body. This narrowing can lead to high blood pressure and other complications in the newborn. Therefore, it is important to avoid the use of valproate during pregnancy to minimize the risk of such birth defects.

It is characterized by a rapid shift in electrolyte and fluid balance, which can lead to various complications. One of the hallmark features of refeeding syndrome after the first week of starting the refeed is hypophosphatemia, which refers to abnormally low levels of phosphate in the blood. This occurs due to increased cellular uptake of phosphate as the body starts to metabolize carbohydrates, leading to a depletion of phosphate stores.
