Blogger Marina Yaroslavtseva launched an internet petition demanding a ban in Russia "the toxic drug Kagocel, which leads to infertility." She also contacted the Ministry of Health, where they explained to her what clinical trials the drug was undergoing. The Ministry of Health told her that the manufacturer of "Kagocel" did not conduct clinical studies on fertility. “This is explained by the sufficiency of the information obtained at the stage of preclinical study of the drug,” the response says. In addition, the department reported that during registration, the drug was tested for specific toxicity and for the absence of the reptoxic effect of the copolymer on standard animal models, writes Lenta. FederalPress recalls that earlier Roszdravnadzor denied the servants about the harmful side effects of Kagocel in the form of male infertility. The drug developer conducted separate studies on the potential effects of the drug on reproductive function. Photo: FederalPress / Elena Mayorova
