The noun SYNERGY has 1 sense: 1. the working together of two things (muscles or drugs for example) to produce an effect greater than the sum of their individual effects. Familiarity information: SYNERGY used as a noun is very rare.
When the interaction causes an increase in the effects of one or both of the drugs the interaction is called a synergistic effect. An additive synergy occurs when the final effect is equal to the sum of the effects of the two drugs (Although some authors argue that this is not true synergy).
