Better Safety Info in Pregnancy Starts with Your Referral
Neurologists need more information on the safety of medications when used in pregnancy. MotherToBaby Pregnancy Studies has over 20 years of experience conducting pregnancy exposure cohort studies. With your patient referrals, our research will produce the scientific evidence you and your patients need to weigh the risks and benefits of given treatments for both mom and baby, allowing you to make informed decisions that minimize maternal and fetal/infant risk.
Rigorously Designed Research Studies
We partner with physicians and patients to monitor pregnancy exposure to multiple sclerosis medications. Our strong cohort study design allows our team to tease apart risks that may be associated with underlying disease versus those associated with a medication exposure.
Please consider referring your patients if they fall into either of these two groups:
- Patients who have taken Aubagio® (Teriflunomide) during a current pregnancy.
- Patients who have multiple sclerosis and were not exposed to teriflunomide during a current pregnancy.
Referral Is Easy & Patient Self-Enrolls
Refer: All you need to do is refer your patients to us. Women self-enroll, so after you make the referral nothing further is required from you.
Observation: Our research is by observation only — we will not ask your patient to take or change any medications or change any part of her healthcare routine
Participation: Women complete 1-3 phone interviews during pregnancy and at least 1 after pregnancy, and authorize the release of medical records for the pregnancy and for their baby.
