Additive effect

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellnesspedia

Additive effect is when the combination of two or more drugs, dietary supplements, or other therapies produces a greater result than one drug, dietary supplement, or therapy given alone. For example, combining valerian with alcohol may have a stronger sedative effect than valerian by itself would produce.
