Medical - Medical (general)
English term or phrase: Step-down change
Increase in therapy was defined as any increase in the medications of interest
regardless of any concomitant reduction in other medications. Decrease in therapy was
defined as any reduction in any of the medication of interest without any concomitant
increase in other medications. However, change in therapy was not just a simple change in
the dose of the medications. The following special circumstances were taken into account:
1. Dosing levels based on body weight
2. Step-down change of immunosuppressive therapy
3. Gradual escalation of immunosuppressive therapy following initiation

desmame ou descontinuação gradual


Explanation:
Mais uma sugestão.

Para que a suspensão da terapêutica com IBP tenha uma boa adesão do doente, é importante que seja realizado com eficácia, através de uma abordagem de descontinuação gradual (‘step down’).
