the desired effect is excessive

dose-related reaction that is not part of the desired therapeutic outcome

an aspect of a patient’s condition that makes the use of a certain drug or therapy an unwise or dangerous decision.

Idiosyncratic reaction:

enetically related abnormal drug response

immunologic response to a drug resulting in a reaction such as a rash or anaphylaxis

Interference with natural defense mechanisms:

when a drug reduces the body’s ability to fight infections.

abnormality in fetal development caused by exposure to certain substances, such as drugs, chemicals, or infections during pregnancy

Type I hypersensitivity:

Immediate hypersensitivity reactions. IgE antibodies: produces vasodilation, edema and the inflammatory response. bronchioles, resulting in anaphylactic shock. Respiratory, results in rhinitis and asthma. Skin results in urticaira

Type II hypersensitivity:

IgG or IgM antibodies. Antibody complex is fixed to a circulating blood cell causing lysis. Results in anemia

Type III hypersensitivity:

aggregations of antigens and antibodies, where antibodies out number antigens forming clumps: manifested as serum sickness, urticarial, arthritis, lymphadenopathy and fever.

Type IV hypersensitivity:

Delayed hypersensitivity. Sensitized T-lymphocytes and macrophages. Manifests as allergic contact dermatitis, poison oak, poison ivy, reaction to jewelry, topical benzocaine, etc..

general discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen: symptoms bloating, nausea, and indigestion

a broad term that refers to any inflammation of the mouth and lips, including the cheeks, gums, tongue, lips, and roof or floor of the mouth

A specific type of stomatitis involving painful inflammation and ulcerations of the mucous membranes in the mouth, most commonly as a side effect of cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome:

is a rare but serious disorder of the skin and mucous membranes, typically triggered by a severe reaction to medications or, less commonly, infections.

is an acute, immune-mediated skin condition characterized by the sudden appearance of distinctive target-like (bullseye) lesions, often triggered by infections or medications

premature death of cells or tissues in the body due to factors like injury, infection, or lack of blood flow

commonly known as hives, is a skin condition characterized by raised, itchy welts or bumps
