Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The LD50 of Oxazolamid in the acute oral toxicity study in rats of both sexes was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg.
Executive summary:

The test substance was administered orally in two fractions of total of 2000 mg per kg weight to one group of 5 male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley rats. Under the conditions of this experiment Oxazolamid caused no mortality. No acute toxicological symptoms attributed to the exposure to Oxazolamid could be observed in 10 out of 10 rats on the day of administration and on the 15 days after administration. The post-mortem findings after euthanasia did not show any macroscopic organ changes.
