No long-term studies in animals have been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of eptifibatide. Eptifibatide was not genotoxic in the Ames test, the mouse lymphoma cell (L 5178Y, TK+/-) forward mutation test, the human lymphocyte chromosome aberration test, or the mouse micronucleus test. Administered by continuous intravenous infusion at total daily doses up to 72 mg/kg/day (about 4 times the recommended maximum daily human dose on a body surface area basis), eptifibatide had no effect on fertility and reproductive performance of male and female rats.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = INTEGRILIN (EPTIFIBATIDE) INJECTION, SOLUTION [MERCK SHARP & DOHME CORP.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=5ad82e30-50d8-450c-8a2a-b4b507ed1ce2 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 5 February 2014 }}</ref>
