D007165	Immunosuppression Therapy	Deliberate prevention or diminution of the host's immune response. It may be nonspecific as in the administration of immunosuppressive agents (drugs or radiation) or by lymphocyte depletion or may be specific as in desensitization or the simultaneous administration of antigen and immunosuppressive drugs.

D009902	Optic Neuritis	Inflammation of the optic nerve. Commonly associated conditions include autoimmune disorders such as MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, infections, and granulomatous diseases. Clinical features include retro-orbital pain that is aggravated by eye movement, loss of color vision, and contrast sensitivity that may progress to severe visual loss, an afferent pupillary defect (Marcus-Gunn pupil), and in some instances optic disc hyperemia and swelling. Inflammation may occur in the portion of the nerve within the globe (neuropapillitis or anterior optic neuritis) or the portion behind the globe (retrobulbar neuritis or posterior optic neuritis).

D010131	Aminosalicylic Acid	An antitubercular agent often administered in association with ISONIAZID. The sodium salt of the drug is better tolerated than the free acid.	4-Aminosalicylic Acid,p-Aminosalicylic Acid,para-Aminosalicylic Acid,Alumino-4-Aminosalicylic Acid,Pamisyl,Rezipas,p-Aminosalicylic Acid Monolithium Salt,p-Aminosalicylic Acid Monopotassium Salt,p-Aminosalicylic Acid Monosodium Salt,p-Aminosalicylic Acid, Aluminum (2:1) Salt,p-Aminosalicylic Acid, Calcium (2:1) Salt,p-Aminosalicylic Acid, Monosodium Salt, Dihydrate,4 Aminosalicylic Acid,Acid, Aminosalicylic,Alumino 4 Aminosalicylic Acid,p Aminosalicylic Acid,p Aminosalicylic Acid Monolithium Salt,p Aminosalicylic Acid Monopotassium Salt,p Aminosalicylic Acid Monosodium Salt,para Aminosalicylic Acid
D010672	Phenytoin	An anticonvulsant that is used to treat a wide variety of seizures. It is also an anti-arrhythmic and a muscle relaxant. The mechanism of therapeutic action is not clear, although several cellular actions have been described including effects on ion channels, active transport, and general membrane stabilization. The mechanism of its muscle relaxant effect appears to involve a reduction in the sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch. Phenytoin has been proposed for several other therapeutic uses, but its use has been limited by its many adverse effects and interactions with other drugs.

D002648	Child	A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL.	Children
D004347	Drug Interactions	The action of a drug that may affect the activity, metabolism, or toxicity of another drug.	Drug Interaction,Interaction, Drug,Interactions, Drug
D004977	Ethambutol	An antitubercular agent that inhibits the transfer of mycolic acids into the cell wall of the tubercle bacillus. It may also inhibit the synthesis of spermidine in mycobacteria. The action is usually bactericidal, and the drug can penetrate human cell membranes to exert its lethal effect.
