As part of achieving national environmental goals, the Swedish Government commissioned a report from the Swedish Medical Products Agency on environmental effects of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics and hygiene products. Five excipients used in pharmaceutical products were selected for environmental risk assessments, applying the computer-based model EUSES. Docusate sodium was identified as a possible risk for sediment-dwelling organisms when taking the total amount used into account. Although, experimental toxicity data on sediment-dwelling organism and data on concentrations in sediments are still required before firm conclusions regarding the environmental risk can be made. The environmental risks posed by excipients used in pharmaceutical products are likely to be negligible. This study identifies that knowledge gaps regarding environmental risks posed by pharmaceutical excipients are evident. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
