    Nicotine as a Teratogen
  

  

  
    According to American Heritage a teratogen is a substance that cause the malformation of an embryo or fetus.1 The below studies examine nicotine as a teratogen in rats. It should be noted that for
    obvious reasons no study has yet examined nicotine exposure alone (without accompanying cigarette smoke) as a teratogen in the human embryo or fetus.
