Example Sentences:
(1) The blockade of H2 receptors is the primary action of these drugs; however, they possess also secondary actions which may represent untoward effects but in some cases may be actually useful (increase in prostaglandin synthesis, inhibition of LTB4 synthesis, etc.)
(2) The functional results are excellent and we did not find any untoward effects attributable to our technique.
(3) Certain untoward effects associated with the use of direct-current electrical catheter ablation of the ventricular endomyocardium have been noted.
(4) There were no untoward clinical laboratory side effects with the exception of the one cimetidine patient who experienced diarrhoea and a small number who showed slight, asymptomatic rise in plasma creatinine level.
(5) The rapidity of obtaining the results (within one hour), the complete absence of untoward reactions to the radiopharmaceuticals, the much lower frequency of subtle or indeterminate results, the ability to render useful information in the presence of moderate jaundice and the lack of interference from overlying intestinal contents establishes these radionuclide agents as superior to both radiographic oral and intravenous cholangiography in the investigation of the acute abdomen.
(6) No untoward serious side effects have been observed, and the growth of children was not slowed.
(7) Oxytocin in both dosage schedules was well tolerated and no untoward side effects were observed.
(8) Hereditary cataracts, as well as congenital cataracts produced in response to untoward environmental input, can be properly understood only within a dynamic developmental context.
(9) The low milk levels, as well as the previously determined poor oral absorption of aztreonam, suggest a low risk of untoward effects in the nursing infant.
(10) With benzodiazepines, StD of memory retrieval conceivably constitutes a parsimonious explanation of the anxiolytic and untoward (amnesic, drug dependence) actions of these drugs.
(11) We concluded that although triglycyllysine vasopressin significantly reduced portal pressure in patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis, it produced untoward systemic haemodynamic changes similar to those seen with vasopressin.
(12) The author reviews the literature reporting the untoward effects of withdrawing monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs).
(13) This untoward event must be added to the growing list of complications associated with the placement of such catheters.
(14) He said nothing untoward had happened except the agency had issued a poorly worded press release, describing it as a mistake and “over the top”.
(15) No untoward reaction of any significance was noted.
(16) On ingestion of food items to which antibodies were demonstrated, no untoward symptom occurred nor was complement activation observed in vivo.
(17) Although both extracts induced some untoward allergic reactions, no adrenaline was used at any time during the study.
(18) Animal experiment did not reveal any untoward effect of 1.5% hydrogen peroxide on the local tissues exposed to the solution except a transient increase of lymphocyte infiltration and exudate.
(19) Thus, the untoward side effects of a tetracycline like minocycline which is a frequent complaint of the patients, appears to be due to a central disinhibition of the vestibular equilibrium regulating mechanisms.
(20) The most frequent untoward effects were low white blood cells count (29.7%), skin rash (16.2%) and low platelet count (13.5%).
