Safety Pharmacology, a branch of pharmacology, is specializing in the detection and study of potential undesirable pharmacodynamic effects of potential drugs on physiological functions associated with exposure in the therapeutic range and above. It is an essential step in assessing any potential adverse effects and potential life-threatening risks that drug candidates may bring to the main physiological system of the human body. Safety pharmacology aims to protect patients from adverse effects and minimize the risk of drug development failure due to undesirable pharmacodynamic effects.
Safety pharmacology, including core battery studies, follow-up studies and supplementary studies, can satisfy the key requirement in the drug discovery and development process, thus are required before first-in-human drug testing. Creative Biolabs is a pharmaceutical expertise who offers global clients with preclinical safety pharmacology services for the assessment of new drug candidates in order to guide preclinical in vivo toxicity studies and help design clinical studies.

Creative Biolabs provides professional safety pharmacology services for safety assessment of drug research and development thus to deal with data reproducibility crisis which is a big obstacle for drug research and development and may lead to failure and high risk of investment. With our comprehensive safety pharmacology studies, we can drive forward and speed up your drug discovery and development process.
With expert scientists and advanced equipment, Creative Biolabs has the ability to design and optimize a panel of both GLP and non-GLP safety assessment assays. Our safety pharmacology facilities feature dedicated telemetry suites, surgical pharmacology capabilities and custom-built cardiovascular laboratories that allow for remote observation of the animals without disrupting data collection.
Creative Biolabs offers the following safety pharmacology services:
Core Battery and Follow-up Studies
The regulatory guidelines require core battery studies to analyze the effects of drugs on cardiovascular, respiratory and central nervous system functions before first administration to humans. Follow-up studies aim to provide additional knowledge or deeper insights.
| Core Battery Studies | Follow-up Studies | |
| Cardiovascular System |
|
|
| Respiratory System |
|
|
| Central Nervous System |
|
|
Supplemental Studies
When potential adverse effects raise concern for human safety, supplemental studies are used to evaluate undesirable pharmacodynamic effects on organ system functions not addressed by the core battery and follow-up studies.
| Supplementary Studies | |
| Renal/ Urinary System |
|
| Autonomic Nervous System |
|
| Gastrointestinal System |
|
| Other Organ Systems |
