English translation:diminishment of side effects
Explanation:
But I would restructure the phrase:

"The side effects may diminish once use of the drug is discontinued."

mas63's answer will also work; this phrasing just sounds more natural to me.

manifestations of side effects may regress after withdrawal of the drug


Explanation:
cf:
..A small number of patients with more severe ocular changes have had some visual impairment. In addition to these corneal and lenticular changes, epithelial keratopathy and pigmentary retinopathy have been reported. Reports suggest that the eye lesions may regress after withdrawal of the drug..(www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/chlorpromazine_ad.htm)

Другой вариант - reduction of side effects

use of different analgesics would probably result in reduction of side effects and better pain control

Вообще-то, регрессия проявлений эффектов - это ужасно. Логичнее было бы сказать: выраженность побочных эффектов (постепенно) ослабляется.

a reduction in the incidence of side effects


Explanation:
This is a very common phrase in pharmacology.

This entire phrase gets about 4,700 results on Google:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="a reduction in the inc...

Here "регрессия" = "a reduction."

They are saying "возможна" because a reduction "may/can occur" or "is possible" -- or probably even more specifically they would say "may be achieved."

"Discontinuing the drug can result in a reduction in the incidence of side effects."
