Updated Pregnancy Registry Website

More than 60% of pregnant woman are prescribed one or more drugs during pregnancy for chronic or acute conditions. To facilitate the collection and analysis of data on prescription drug use during pregnancy, OWH has updated and re-launched its Pregnancy Exposure Registry Web Portal. Accessible by health care providers and pregnant women, the portal lists contact information for 41 pregnancy registries and provides links to FDA and external resources on pregnancy.

Pregnancy exposure registries provide prospective observational data on pregnancy and fetal outcomes that can help inform regulatory decision making and provide healthcare practitioners with information to counsel women about prescription drug use during pregnancy. The OWH Pregnancy Exposure Registry Portal is the only web site that lists information for all available registries in one location.
