To educate the public, the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists has compiled Fact Sheets on various exposures of concern.  Fact Sheets answer frequently asked questions about exposures during pregnancy and lactation, and have been designed to print on a single double-sided page.  Currently available Fact Sheets are listed below by category of exposure.  All medications are listed by generic name.  The generic name can be found on your prescription or medication packaging listed as the Active Ingredient, or in parentheses after the medication’s brand name.

If you have questions about the information in any of the Fact Sheets, or if you do not see your topic of interest listed below, please call OTIS at 1-866-626-6847 to speak with a teratology information specialist.
