Kontraindikálhatják

Kontraindikálhatják is a Hungarian verb form meaning that “they may contraindicate.” It is the third-person plural form in the potential mood of the verb kontraindikálni, used to express that certain factors or conditions could render a treatment, medication, or procedure inadvisable. The term appears mainly in medical, pharmaceutical, and risk-assessment contexts.

Grammatically, kontraindikálhatják consists of the stem kontraindikál-, the potential suffix -hat, and the 3rd person plural ending -ják. The base verb kontraindikálni means “to contraindicate” or “to indicate against.” This form is used when the subject is plural and the speaker conveys possibility or likelihood rather than certainty.

Examples include: "Ezek a tényezők a gyógyszer alkalmazását kontraindikálhatják." and "Ezek az állapotok a műtétet kontraindikálhatják." In both sentences the subject is plural and the action is a possible contraindication rather than a definite one.

Usage note: In medical communication, kontraindikálhatják signals conditional or risk-based judgment. It indicates that, depending on factors such as age, comorbidities, vagy gyógyszer-túladagolás, a beavatkozás vagy kezelés nem biztos, hogy megfelelő.

Etymology: the term derives from kontra- (“against”) and indikálni (“to indicate”), through the Hungarian kontraindikálni, with the form kontraindikálhatják functioning as the plural potential mood of the verb. Related terms include kontraindikáció (contraindication) and ellenjavallat (alternative term for contraindicated).
