When we talk about treatment, the spotlight usually falls on what it’s meant to improve or manage. The other side, the possible side effects, often gets less attention even though it can shape daily life in important ways.

Side effects don’t affect everyone in the same way. Understanding the possibilities can help you feel prepared, more confident, and more in control of your treatment.

At your next consultation, ask about possible side effects. It can help you spot changes early and know when to seek advice.
