      It depends on what you mean as a bad way? I’ll stick with medicinal drugs for the moment…

      Good bad drugs can include those for cancer treatment – Chemotherapy is very nasty but is one of the only ways to reduce tumour size. Some antimicrobial treatments can make you feel a bit under the weather and one antibiotic I think makes your tears orange in some cases, but not having the infection and suffering some minor symptoms because of your treatment is better than not being treated and not surviving. Some people are allergic to penicillin so can have a anaphylactic shock which can be fatal in severe cases.
