The Terrifying Side Effects of Prescription Drugs   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #561 of 699 |
This is from Dr. Mercola's website.  Bear in mind that these same drugs are finding their way into the tap water albeit in trace amounts so far but even that is getting worse.  Honestly.....wouldn't it be more accurate to call the "side effects" the "effects"?  The "side effect" might be that the drug helps with what it was originally prescribed for.
Are we scared yet?

The Terrifying Side Effects of Prescription Drugs

prescription drugs, medicationThe side effects of prescription medication can be horrific. Is it really worth taking medication if the cure is worse than the disease?
Here 26 side effects that come with many prescription drugs currently on the market.
  1. Drainage, crusting, or oozing of your eyes or eyelids
  2. Swollen, black, or "hairy" tongue
  3. Changes in the shape or location of body fat
  4. Decrease in testicle size
  5. Sores or swelling in your rectal or genital area
  6. Blue lips or fingernails
  7. Purple spots on your skin
  8. White patches or sores inside your mouth or on your lips
  9. Irregular back-and- forth movements of your eyes
  10. Enlarged breasts in males.
  11. Unusual risk-taking behavior, no fear of danger
  12. Extreme fear
  13. Hallucinations, fainting, coma
  14. Fussiness, irritability, crying for an hour or longer
  15. Paralysis
  16. Thoracic Hematoma (bleeding into your chest)
  17. A blood clot in your lung

One drug on the market, EvaMist -- a treatment for menopause symptoms such as hot flashes -- has possible side effects that include cancer, stroke, heart attack, blood clots, and dementia!
But this is only a partial list of the potential side effects of prescription drugs. There are, unfortunately, many more out there.
