For our experiments, we select 6 widely used drug families (based on webmd.com). The specificity increase over the SVM L2 baseline is maximum for the Alprazolam drug family at 8.33% followed by Levothyroxine at 4.6%. The users taking anti-depressants like Alprazolam suffer from anxiety disorder, panic attacks, depression etc. and report a large number of side-effects of drugs. Hence, it is very difficult to negate certain side-effects, in which our model performs very well due to well-designed language features.
