What is a "contraindication"?

A contraindication is a specific situation or condition where a particular treatment or medication should not be used because it may be harmful to the patient. For example, a certain drug might be harmful for people with allergies to its ingredients, or a medical procedure might be harmful for someone with a certain health condition. Identifying contraindications helps ensure patient safety by avoiding treatments that could cause dangerous effects.
