| As previously noted, however, the risk of teratogenicity appears to be overstated. |
| Teratogenicity and carcinogenicity can result from biochemical toxicity. |
| Women of childbearing age should be treated with prophylactics with caution because of the teratogenicity of most of the drugs used for this purpose. |
| The potential teratogenicity of benzodiazepines remains controversial, but a recent meta-analysis suggested a twofold increase, at most, in the risk of orofacial clefts. |
| Efavirenz should not be used during pregnancy because of possible teratogenicity, and the potential for oncogenic toxicity is unknown. |
| The sudden appearance of several cases of a rare disorder can also raise suspicions of teratogenicity. |
