Preferred term

adverse drug withdrawal events  

Definition

  • Adverse drug withdrawal events (ADWEs) are a clinical set of symptoms or signs related to the cessation of a drug. Clinical manifestation of an ADWE may be either physiological withdrawal reaction of the drug (e.g., β-blocker withdrawal syndrome) or an exacerbation of the underlying disease itself.
