consequent
Coming after causally
Consequent describes something that follows as a result or logical conclusion: the rise in prices and consequent drop in sales.
The word emphasizes the causal connection between events—what comes after because of what came before.
In logic, the consequent is the second part of a conditional statement, the "then" clause that follows "if."
