Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) refer to unintended or harmful reactions caused by medications when taken at normal doses. These reactions can range from mild side effects, such as nausea or dizziness, to more serious reactions like organ damage or allergic reactions. Research in this area aims to understand the mechanisms behind ADRs, identify risk factors that may predispose individuals to ADRs, and develop strategies to predict, prevent, and manage these reactions. This field of study is crucial in improving medication safety and patient outcomes.
