How is synergistic effect defined when it relates to drugs and alcohol?

The effects are reduced when drugs act together
The effects remain unchanged when drugs act together
The effects are multiplied when two or more drugs act together
The effects cancel each other out

The correct answer is: The effects are multiplied when two or more drugs act together

A synergistic effect is defined as an increased, or magnified, effect when two or more drugs act together. This means that the combined effects of the drugs are stronger than if they were taken individually. Options A and B are incorrect because they suggest a reduction or no change in effect when drugs act together, which is the opposite of a synergistic effect. Option D is also incorrect because a canceling out or neutralization of effects is not considered a synergistic effect.
