===Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility===
 
Dabigatran was not carcinogenic when administered by oral gavage to mice and rats for up to 2 years. The highest doses tested (200 mg/kg/day) in mice and rats were approximately 3.6 and 6 times, respectively, the human exposure at MRHD of 300 mg/day based on AUC comparisons.
 
Dabigatran was not mutagenic in in vitro tests, including bacterial reversion tests, mouse lymphoma assay and chromosomal aberration assay in human lymphocytes, and thein vivo micronucleus assay in rats.
 
In the rat fertility study with oral gavage doses of 15, 70, and 200 mg/kg, males were treated for 29 days prior to mating, during mating up to scheduled termination, and females were treated 15 days prior to mating through gestation Day 6. No adverse effects on male or female fertility were observed at 200 mg/kg or 9 to 12 times the human exposure at MRHD of 300 mg/day based on AUC comparisons. However, the number of implantations decreased in females receiving 70 mg/kg, or 3 times the human exposure at MRHD based on AUC comparisons.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = ARGATROBAN INJECTION, SOLUTION [GLAXOSMITHKLINE LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=9c9616c0-a299-4fd5-c8ae-79e6db453595 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 31 January 2014 }}</ref>
