A Call for Participation in the Ribavirin Pregnancy Registry

Dear Colleagues,

I am pleased to bring you this Expert Viewpoint discussing the aims and

scope of the Ribavirin Pregnancy Registry for evaluating outcomes of

pregnancies exposed to ribavirin either by direct maternal exposure or by

indirect paternal exposure.

The piece reviews the rationale for this voluntary program and provides

guidance on how to participate. For more information, please click here.

To ensure the success of the Ribavirin Pregnancy Registry, patients and

physicians are needed to report ribavirin-exposed pregnancies and to collect

data during pregnancy and following pregnancy outcome. This Registry will

undoubtedly help physicians in managing patient care and in assessing risk

of birth defects in ribavirin-exposed pregnancies.

Sincerely,
