MGH National Pregnancy Registry to Monitor Atypical Antipsychotics

Massachusetts General Hospital has created a National Pregnancy Registry for women who are taking atypical antipsychotic medication during pregnancy.  The registry was created to obtain information about the safety of these medications when used during pregnancy.

If you are a pregnant woman between the ages of 18 and 45 and currently treated with one or more of the following atypical antipsychotics:

  • Abilify (aripiprazole)
  • Clozaril (clozapine)
  • Geodon (ziprasidone)
  • Invega (paliperidone)
  • Risperdal (risperidone)
  • Seroquel (quetiapine)
  • Zyprexa (olanzapine)

Register now by calling 1-866-961-2388 to help them learn more about the safety of these medicines in pregnancy.  The study will involve 3 brief phone interviews over an 8-month period.
