Yeah, what about side-effects? will there be any?

What side-effects did you experience?

There are pretty significant “side effects” with that particular medication.

PeterStuer • Jul 14, 2025 • View on HN

Why would that be a 'bad' side effect? Isn't that the whole point of the medication?

Never thought about this side effect. What precautions do you take.

exabrial • Feb 27, 2020 • View on HN

Side effects would be my guess.

Not just side effects in this case.

Go read the side-effects and restrictions of commonly used medicine some day, it's unsettling.

cmrdporcupine • May 26, 2025 • View on HN

Any long term side-effects from that?
