Sodium Lauroamphoacetate During Pregnancy

What we know about using Sodium Lauroamphoacetate while pregnant or breastfeeding

Limited information available.

No adverse effects on fertility or reproductive performance were observed in a study in which male and female Wistar rats were dosed orally with up to 500 mg/kg bw Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone prior to mating, during gestation, and until day 22 post-partum. 47 In several other studies, no statistically significant adverse effects upon reproductive performance or fetal development were seen in rats dosed at up to 1000 mg/kg/d Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone, although a higher incidence of postimplantation loss was reported in some studies. 3,4 The NOAELs, based on body surface area comparisons, were determined to be up to 1000 mg/kg/d for embryofetal development, and 500 mg/kg/d and 1000 mg/kg/d, for male and female fertility, respectively. 4 Rabbits, dosed at up to 150 mg/kg/d Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone and observed for teratological abnormalities, displayed chromaturia in the highest dosage group. 3 In Japanese rabbits dosed at up to 500 mg/kg/d Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone, one abortion was observed in the highest dosage group, but was not considered significant due to the spontaneous abortion rate in the animal strain; no statistically significant embryofetal differences were reported between controls and treated groups.4 No treatment-related changes were observed in the F1 generation, or in the dams, of rats dosed at up to 500 mg/kg/d Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone. 3,4 The NOAEL for rat pup development was determined to be 500 mg/kg/d Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone. 4 Treatment with Ubiquinone had no effect on fetal death, weight, or postnatal toxicity in primigravid mice (strain and number not specified) dosed at up to 600 mg/kg/d, from day 7 to day 13 of gestation. 30 Groups of 10 male mice were given up to 10,000 mg/kg bw Ubiquinone, via gavage, for 5 d, followed by a 35-d latency period, to test for defects in sperm morphology.49 No significant differences were found in the incidence of sperm abnormalities between Ubiquinone-treated mice and the negative controls (treated with corn oil). Except for an increase in seminiferous epithelium heights, no biochemical, histological, or morphological differences were observed between 8 male Wistar rats dosed at 10 mg/kg bw/d Ubiquinone for 14 d and negative control and vehicle control groups.51 Treatment with Ubiquinone had no effect on fetal death, weight, or postnatal activity in primigravid rats dosed at up to 600 mg/kg/d, from day 9 to day 15 of gestation. 30
