Have you ever really read the ingriedents on the prescription bottles and things like aspirin? All those long words that are really long and you can not even pronounce them? I mean what is all that? What are we taking? Can you really pronounce those long long words? And then another thing I don't get is on the commercials on every medication they say side affects may cause skin irritations, vomitting, diarreha, oh yea I'm thinking well just let me get some of that!! NOT!!!! L.O.L.

I suppose looking up the ingredients may or may not give us a better idea what they are but who does that right? I suppose the manufactures list all possible side effects to cover themselves. You are right we buy and take the stuff with the knowledge that we could end up with skin irritations, diarrhea, vomiting, etc. What can you do? I’ve only ever been allergic to one medication in my life and the vomiting side effect applied to me that time so I guess it is trial and error...

I have not often looked at them ingredients especially when I go to reach for the aspirin and my head is pounding, reading them might already be a side effect. 
But you are right I wonder if the scientific people who name them can actually pronounce them and how they come up with such names is kind of crazy.
