Side Effects of Prescription Medication
Surfing through the Internet, I found an article that caught my attention, so I decided to post it here. It is actually a list of twenty-six side effects that come with most of medicines that are in the market.
- Drainage, crusting, or oozing of your eyes or eyelids
- Swollen, black, or "hairy" tongue
- Changes in the shape or location of body fat
- Decrease in testicle size
- Sores or swelling in your rectal or genital area
- Blue lips or fingernails
- Purple spots on your skin
- White patches or sores inside your mouth or on your lips
- Irregular back-and- forth movements of your eyes
- Enlarged breasts in males.
- Unusual risk-taking behavior, no fear of danger
- Extreme fear
- Hallucinations, fainting, coma
- Fussiness, irritability, crying for an hour or longer
- Paralysis
- Thoracic Hematoma (bleeding into your chest)
- A blood clot in your lung
- Liver damage
- Kidney damage
- A lump in your breast
- Decreased bone marrow function
- Congestive heart failure
- Shingles
- Nerve pain lasting for several weeks or months
- Bleeding that will not stop
- Coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds
That my dear Yukzster is why I really dont drink meds if I feel I could be better by drinking a cup of of tea instead.
