When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

please see explanation below
Dictionaries mention only "pratikriya", and I have found this to be inadequate for my purpose. But then there really doesn't seem to be any alternative.
If your context is Chemistry, then the word "abhikriya" is there, but I assume that is not the word you want.
There is "anukriya" but that is more appropriate for "follow-up".
It would be better to work around the word, if you don't want to use pratikriya. Some examples:
He reacted rather sharply to the comment.
Yah tippani sunkar vah aag baboola ho gaya.
The drug produced a very mild reaction in him.
Dawai ka us par halka sa hi prabhav dekhne me aaya.
His role in the whole affair was rather reactionary.
Is saare mamle mein uski bhoomika kaafi roodivaadi rahi.
Etc.
