Why do some side effects show up on most medication (headache, nausea, diarrhea, etc.)
In: 2
In really simple (ELI5) terms, medication is seen by your body as an invader. Or it is causing your body to do things it didn’t want or wasn’t ready to do. So the side effects are your body reacting to and/or recovering from this invader or unexpected behavior. Your body doesn’t “know” the medication is trying to help.
