additive effect

(...)
In addition to synergism, other terms are used to define the toxicologic interactions.

Additive Effect - This action occurs when the combined effect of two or more chemicals is equal to the sum of the effect of each agents given alone (they do not interact in a direct way); for example:
2 + 2 = 4
This effect is the most common when two chemicals are given together.

How Drugs Work
(...)
Additive Effect = Additive effect is the term used when two or more drugs are taken at the same time and the action of one plus the action of the other results in an action as if just one drug had been given. This could be represented by 1+1= 2. An example would be a barbiturate and a tranquilizer given together before surgery to relax the patient.

neutral Luciano Eduardo de Oliveira : Aditivism aparece só três vezes na internet, e um resultado é irrelevante. Additivism, com dois dd, aparece muito mais e faz mais sentido, já que todos os compostos de add são escritos com dois dd.
