Classification of thermoregulation-related medications used in the study participants.

Medication class (Level 1) Mode of action (Level 2) Any thermoregulation-related medication (Level 3)
Antimigraine, Anticonvulsant, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, Sedative Change heat perception
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, Angiotensin receptor blockers, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs Impact renal function
Sympathomimetics, Antihistamines Cause vasoconstriction
Laxatives Shift the fluid balance
Sympathomimetics Increase metabolic heat production
Anticholinergics, Anticonvulsants, Antidepressants, Antipsychotics (excluding antidepressants), Sedatives Alter central thermoregulation
β blockers, Calcium channel blockers Decrease heart rate or contractility
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, Diuretics Cause dehydration
