Reproductive & developmental
Rat fertility: most females (90-95%) stayed in diestrus and failed to mate; effect reversed after treatment stopped
“Most female animals (90% to 95%) at each dose level remained in diestrus and failed to mate. However, this effect on mating reversed following cessation of treatment.”
hERG IC50 ~100 µM, suggesting a low risk of clinical QT prolongation
“In an in vitro hERG assay, amisulpride showed hERG channel inhibitory effects with an IC50 of ~100μM, suggesting a low risk for clinical QT prolongation.”
