Drug Toxicity

Drug toxicity is a potential side effect of using any medication, resulting in undesirable physical or psychological changes. It occurs when a drug is taken at a dosage that is higher than the recommended dose or when the drug accumulates in the body due to repeated doses or lack of clearance from the body. Symptoms of drug toxicity can range from mild to severe, and may include nausea, fatigue, confusion, depression, skin rashes, and organ failure. Drug toxicity is a major concern for healthcare providers, as it can cause serious health complications and even death. To ensure safety, providers should always monitor patients for signs of drug toxicity and adjust their treatment accordingly.
