Toxicological information

Developmental toxicity / teratogenicity

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

Endpoint:
developmental toxicity
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across based on grouping of substances (category approach)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
A reliable secondary source, summarising ISDN pharmaco-toxicological properties, was used. However, the primary sources were not revisited in order to verify their contents; for this reason reliability score 2 was used. The used secondary source has been updated on January, 2011; therefore it covers the most updated literature on the substance.

Overall developmental toxicity

Developmental effects observed:
not specified

Any other information on results incl. tables

No increase in malformation is observed in this study. The read-across approach is applied in order to transfer the isosorbide mononitrate information to isosorbide dinitrate.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Available information do not suggest any possible effects on developmental toxicity and teratogenicity.
