Comparison of addiction between Becarbon and Besalol
Like safety, addiction also involves many factors that must be considered when evaluating a drug.
So, the totality of the values of such parameters as “o syndrome” in Becarbon is quite similar to the similar values in Besalol. Withdrawal syndrome is a pathological condition that occurs after the cessation of intake of addictive or dependent substances into the body. And resistance is understood as initial immunity to a drug; in this it differs from addiction, when immunity to a drug develops over a certain period of time. The presence of resistance can only be stated if an attempt has been made to increase the dose of the drug to the maximum possible. At the same time, in Becarbon the meaning of the “syndrome” is quite small, however, the same as in Besalol.
Comparison of side effects of Becarbon and Besalol
Side effects or adverse events are any adverse medical event that occurs in a subject after administration of a drug.
Besalol has more adverse effects than Becarbon. This implies that the frequency of their occurrence is low in Besalol and low in Becarbon. Frequency of occurrence is an indicator of how many cases of an undesirable effect from treatment are possible and registered. The undesirable effect on the body, the strength of influence and the toxic effect of drugs are different: how quickly the body recovers after taking it and whether it recovers at all. When using Besalol, the body's ability to recover faster is higher than that of Becarbon.
