Any other information on results incl. tables

Transient local intolerance reactions at the application site up to Day 10 after administration and secondary effects on general condition in one animal at the high dose (increased body temperature, apathy and anorexia). All animals survived the observation period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on the results there is no classification required according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP).
Executive summary:

No acute toxicity studies were conducted with ZK 5686 (gestonorone). Results of studies conducted with an ester of gestonorone (gestonorone caproate, ZK 5623) are regarded as representative as most likely ester cleavage occurs in vivo after administration.

The single intramuscular administration of a microcristalline suspension of ZK 5623 to female Beagle dogs at a maximum dose of appr. 150 mg/kg caused transient local intolerance reactions at the application site up to Day 10 after administration and secondary effects on general condition in one animal at the high dose (increased body temperature, apathy and anorexia). All animals survived the observation period. No necropsy was performed. The acute toxicity of ZK 5623 after intramuscular administration in Beagle dogs is above approximately 150 mg/kg (2000 g/dog).
