This thoroughly revised and updated reference addresses the drugs and chemicals causing malformations and congenital anomalies in the human fetus-comprehensively reviewing experimental studies in animals and clinical data on human development, primarily in the organogenesis period. Addressing current public health concerns over teratogens, Chemically Induced Birth Defects, Third Edition covers and condenses the 2500 new publications on developmental toxicology that appear every year.
Provides comprehensive identification of teratogens by chemical, generic, and trade names.
Chemically Induced Birth Defects, Third Edition

discusses the interrelation of over 4100 chemicals in current use, still in the experimental stage, or now obsolete

covers recently available drugs, such as misoprostol and fluconazole

utilizes the latest Good Laboratory Practices-conducted studies to evaluate specific agents

investigates up-to-the-minute impairments of maternal homeostasis that may lead to teratogenesis
