1. Temporary & Treatable Drug-Induced Conditions

These conditions can often be managed or reversed with proper medical care:
• Stomach ulcers (from painkillers like NSAIDs) → Treated with medications like antacids or stopping the drug.
• Antibiotic side effects (diarrhea, nausea) → Usually stop when the medication is discontinued.
• Drowsiness or memory loss (from sedatives like Diazepam) → Improves after stopping the drug.
• Low blood sugar (from diabetes medications) → Can be managed with dietary changes and adjusting medication dosage.

2. Chronic or Hard-to-Reverse Conditions

Some drug-induced sicknesses can be difficult to treat or may leave lasting effects:
• Kidney damage (from long-term use of painkillers and some antibiotics) → May require dialysis if severe.
• Liver damage (from excessive alcohol, acetaminophen overdose, or certain drugs like methotrexate) → Can lead to liver failure if untreated.
• Addiction (from opioids, benzodiazepines, or recreational drugs) → Requires rehabilitation and long-term treatment.
• Heart disease (from anabolic steroids, cocaine, or blood pressure drugs misused) → May need lifelong medication or surgery.

3. Irreversible Conditions

Some drug-induced conditions are permanent or have no complete cure:
• Nerve damage (from chemotherapy or excessive alcohol use) → May cause lifelong neuropathy.
• Hearing loss (from certain antibiotics like aminoglycosides) → Usually irreversible.
• Severe psychiatric disorders (from prolonged drug abuse like methamphetamine use) → Can lead to long-term mental illness.
