Topiramate treatment during adolescence induces short and long-term alterations in the reproductive system of female rats.

Topiramate (TPM) is an antiepileptic drug used for treating epilepsy in children, and migraine in teenagers. In this context, preclinical studies with adult female rats observed reproductive system abnormalities following treatment with TPM. Additionally, exposure to endocrine disruptors during developmental plasticity periods, such as childhood and adolescence, may influence characteristics in the adult individual.

Intrauterine and Lactational Exposure to Paracetamol: Cardiometabolic Evaluation in Adult Female and Male Offspring.

Paracetamol (PAR) is the most common over-the-counter drug recommended by physicians for treatment of pain and fever during gestation. This drug is not teratogenic, being considered safe for fetus; however, PAR crosses the blood-placental barrier. Considering that, the present study aimed to evaluate the vascular and metabolic safety of PAR exposure during intrauterine and neonatal development in adult male and female-exposed offspring.
