Alleviating side effects

Alleviating effect of active hexose correlated compound (AHCC) for anticancer drug-induced side effects in non-tumor-bearing mice.

Active hexose correlated compound (AHCC) is an extract of a basidiomycete mushroom that is used as a supplement by some cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy; it is thought to enhance the therapeutic effects and reduce the side effects of select anticarcinogenic agents. AHCC has been reported to strengthen the anticancer effects of cisplatin (CDDP) and ameliorate its side effects in female BA...

Side Effects

This section covers basic topics and illustrates the technical notion of a computational effect with several mathematical and programming examples. In everyday language, a “side effect” refers to the unintended or unforeseen consequences of an action. By analogy, in order to identify the side effect of a given computation, it is first necessary to isolate the “publicly stated” or “publicly expe...

Codeine effects and side effects

Curiosity about codeine can lead to copious information, so first it?s good to focus on the basics. Codeine is a prescription opioid/narcotic analgesic [2] that?s typically used to reduce coughing or to relieve mild to moderate pain by acting on the central nervous system (CNS, more on this later). That said, it?s good to be aware of potential risks associated with taking this medication. Codei...
