What Is The Worst Medication You've Ever Taken?

I feel like doctors push their meds on us. Dont they get incentives for that?

I was prescribed Prednisone (steroid) 20mg for 5 days. I got to researching online about it because I'm not a fan of medication. The fukking side effects of this shyt is 10x worse than what I'm taking it for. Supposedly when you take a synthetic steroid for an extended period, your body's natural production of steroids shuts down. I took 2 doses, one yesterday and one today and I'm not taking no more. I'll be damned if I get sick off some meds. The doctors just be handin out these fukkin prescriptions not given a fukk what happens to you. This got me thinkin, whats the worst medication y'all ever took?

The worst shyt I took before was omeprazole which was for acid reflux. This shyt made me feel TERRIBLE. My stomach was in knots and I nausea for hours. I'd rather get heart burn from 20 steaks than take that shyt again. I be ready to the docs and pharmacists for the slick shyt they pull.

Wait you took prednisone for two days, felt no effects, and you consider it the worst?

I have been on and off that shyt for over half my life and it has given me all sorts of health problems, given me early arthritis and brittle bones. Being on it for two days isn't going to do anything to you though.

The worst medication I've ever been on was Lamactil. Like in one percent of the population it actually does the opposite of what it's supposed to do. Apparently I am that one percent of the population. I got seriously manic, paranoid, had certain delusional thoughts, and I got super horny, all because of the medication. That shyt is not for me jesus christ. I stopped taking it immediately when I figured out it was the meds even though you're supposed to slowly go off of it.
