The document discusses the severity and seriousness of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). It defines four levels of severity - mild, moderate, severe, and lethal - based on the extent to which ADRs influence a patient's daily life. Mild ADRs do not require antidotes or prolonged treatment/hospitalization and cause minor symptoms like drowsiness. Moderate ADRs may require changes to treatment but not discontinuation of necessary drugs, and can result in prolonged hospitalization or specific treatment for symptoms such as urinary issues or mood changes. The document provides this information about ADR severity in the context of a student's class on pharmacovigilance, citing a reference textbook.
