d) Drug tolerance
Penjelasan
The phenomenon described in the question is known as drug tolerance. This occurs when the body becomes accustomed to a drug, requiring higher doses to achieve the same effect. This is not necessarily indicative of addiction, physical dependence, or psychological dependence, although these can sometimes co-occur. The key point here is the increasing need for larger doses to achieve the same effect, which is the definition of drug tolerance.
