    GlossaryAdverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)

    unintended, harmful effects from normal medication use

    Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) are unintended, harmful effects that occur when a medication is administered at normal doses for prevention, diagnosis, or treatment. These reactions can range from mild side effects, like nausea, to severe outcomes, such as organ damage or life-threatening conditions. Understanding and monitoring ADRs is crucial for both healthcare providers and patients to ensure safe and effective use of medications.
