To calm down Explanation: Here in this context, the translation will be : It is the doctor's report that the patient suffered from severe neck pain in the beginning and was reduced to half the dose (20mg 1-0-1), this should have calmed down again (the patient should have a relief from severe neck pain) and now the patient is under full dosage again (40mg 1-0-1). |

have settled Explanation: "These symptoms appear to have settled again, so now he is back on the full dose." This is how I would say "duerfte sich wieder gelegt haben". Hope this helps. Example sentence(s):

subsided Explanation: the symptoms appeared with the higher dosage, probably a side effect, but then when they halved the dosage, it subsided. So they put the patient on the full dosage again. https://www.linguee.com/german-english/translation/wieder+gelegt+haben+.html |

has diminished Explanation: There's no such thing as "sich gelegen" in this context. It's either "sich gelegt haben" or "sich legen".. (the pain) .. appears to have since diminished.. I think this is the appropriate term here. Compare: "I'm happy to report that the pain has diminished by about 90% now." https://www.thelajollachiropractor.com/patient-testimonials.... |
