English term

interaction

English to Hebrew Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals substance interaction
Not drug interaction per se, but interaction of any one substance with another (food, meds, drink).
I thought ����� may work but do not know if it's "common" enough (I need common language, not "high" language).
Proposed translations (Hebrew)

Thanks Tzviya, that's what I thought.
Tzviya Levin Rifkind Oct 21, 2009:
אמנם לפי האקדמיה התרגום של אינטראקציה הוא הידוד, אבל בשפה המדוברת בתחום הרוקחות והרפואה מילה זו לא מוכרת, ואף אחד לא משתמש בה.
Lingopro (asker) Oct 21, 2009:
Hebrew font disappeared. should say הידוד

אינטראקציה

This word in hebrew is very common. "Hidud" is right too, but is too high in register.

Lingopro, "תגובה" is reaction, not interaction. I would leave it אינטראקציה since this is the exact translation, and again, everybody knows what it means in Hebrew. It doesn't look strange at all in a Hebrew text.
Note from asker:
Thanks, Zehavit. Is תגובה also common and acceptable?
Again thank you, Zehavit - you have been very helpful.
