English translation:discontinued
Explanation:
Apart from the usual meaning of "exposed", I have come across "utsätta" and "utsatt" with the meaning of "discontinuing to take a particular drug". They could mean that here, but we'd have to see a wider context. All in all, it's just another possibility to consider.
