SLUD (Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Defecation) is a common acronym used in medicine to describe the symptoms of exposure to nerve agents or certain insecticides. While SLUD is widely understood in the medical field, using synonyms can help to convey the same meaning in a clearer, more accessible way. For example, one possible alternative acronym is SEAL (Stimulated Secretion, Excretion, Autonomic effects, Lacrimation). Other possible synonyms for SLUD include increased gastrointestinal motility, excessive sweating, tearing, and increased salivation. By using simpler terminology that is easy to understand, medical professionals can more effectively communicate with patients, colleagues, and other stakeholders.
