Tachyphylaxis (Greek ÏÎ±ÏÏÏ, tachys, rapid, and ÏÏÎ»Î±Î¾Î¹Ï, phylaxis, protection) is a medical term describing an acute rapid decrease in response to a drug after its administration. It can occur after an initial dose or after a series of small doses. Increasing the dose of the drug may be able to restore the original response.
