Details on maternal toxic effects: At 10 mg/kg bw/day: no effect level for maternal toxicity. At doses greater than or equal to 100 mg/kg bw/day: presence of significant dose related maternal toxicity (reduced maternal body weight and weight gain).At doses greater than or equal to 450 mg/kg bw/day, the presence of significant maternal toxicity was observed. At the doses tested (0, 10, 100, 450 or 900 mg/kg bw/day scopolamine hydrobromide) there was no separation of maternal toxicity from developmental toxicity.

Results (fetuses)
- Fetal body weight changes:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- For mean fetal body weight per litter (male, female, and the sexes combined) values for substance treated fetuses in Replicate I were not significantly different from controls at any dose level, although the substance treated groups tended to be lower than controls. In Replicate II, however, mean fetal body weight per litter (sexes combined and female) exhibited an overall treatment effect, with the 100 mg/kg/day dose group, only, significantly below controls. Male fetal body weight per litter was significantly depressed below control in the 100, 450, and 900 mg/kg/day dose groups in Replicate II. Examination of the study records indicates that in the 100 mg/kg/day dose group, fetuses from Replicate II generally had lower body weights than fetuses in Replicate I. In particular, one litter in Replicate II had a mean fetal body weight of 2.73 g, the smallest mean litter weight in the entire study. There was no obvious reason for this occurrence. Therefore, the effect of the substance on fetal body weight was minimal, and was not consistent across replicates.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Exposure of timed-pregnant CD rats to Scopolamine hydrobromide trihydrate at doses up to 900 mg/kg bw/day on gestational days 6 - 15 caused no clear evidence of teratogenic response in gestation day 20 rat foetuses. Marginal evidence of intrauterine growth retardation and a non-dose-related trend toward an increase in the incidence of malformations was observed only at doses that caused significant maternal toxicity.
