Answer:

  B. An idiosyncratic response.

Explanation:

  It is also known as Type B response and is unusual or abnormal responses to a drug by an individual. This response cannot be reproduced in a substantial number of subjects in the population.

  Normally they occur when the patient is first exposed to a new drug that had not been fully tested about its possible side-effects.
