There are some ways to reduce or hide the side effects of drugs, such as drinking plenty of fluids, taking a pain reliever like ibuprofen or Tylenol, resting, or diverting the person's attention with activities like reading or watching TV.

There are some strategies that can help reduce the side effects of drugs. Many side effects can be managed by taking medications slowly and cautiously, usually starting with a smaller dose and gradually increasing it over time. People should always read the information that comes with their medication, in order to be aware of the possible side effects.
Drugs can also be taken alongside food or beverages which may help reduce nausea or dizziness. For instance, anti-emetic foods such as ginger or toast may help to reduce nausea associated with medicines.
Additionally, regular exercise may counteract some of the negative impacts of drug treatment on physical and mental wellbeing. In addition to this, healthy diet and adequate hydration are important for reducing any potential side effects.
Finally, people should make sure they consult their doctor about any questions or concerns they might have before commencing a course of drug treatment.
