Ferrosan had done the preliminary
20 animal studies to look at teratogenicity. And
21 they were done, I believe, in 1979 and 1980.
22 And one of the studies was called
23 Study 295. This is a study where they give
24 Paxil, paroxetine, to pregnant female rats.
And what the evidence showed in Study 295 is
2 that the rats that got no Paxil, 88 percent of
3 them were alive or 12 percent were dead by the
4 fourth day after they were born. The ones that
5 were given 5 milligrams of Paxil, 65 percent
6 were dead by day 4. The ones that were dosed
7 with 15 milligrams of Paxil, 92 percent were
8 dead by day 4. And in the ones that were given
9 50 milligrams of Paxil, 100 percent were dead
10 by the fourth day after they were born
