Dechallenge

    Dechallenge is a response observed for the reduction or disappearance of adverse drug reactions (ADR) on withdrawal of a drug from a patient to observe:
    • The continuity of an AE (negative dechallenge – causal relationship less likely)
    • The reduction or disappearance of an AE (positive dechallenge – causal relationship more likely)
