Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals
French term or phrase: EI
The abbreviation is in a report on side effects of a medication. "Voici le fichier recapitulant les EI cutanés". shorty thereafter there occurts "effets cutanés" in what seems the same context, but can EI be an abbreviation for "effets"? None of the glossary entries seem to fit.
