- In animal studies, no effects on embryo-fetal development were observed following
administration of vibegron during the period of organogenesis at exposures
approximately 275-fold and 285-fold greater than clinical exposure at the
recommended daily dose of GEMTESA, in rats and rabbits, respectively.

were treated with daily oral doses of 0, 30, 100, or 500 mg/kg/day vibegron from
day 6 of gestation through day 20 of lactation.

consumption) at 500 mg/kg/day.
