Let me start by saying this clearly – I’m not against medication. If you truly need it, absolutely take it. Medication can be lifesaving and necessary.
But what I want you to understand goes beyond the standard list of side effects. What happens with long-term use? What does it do to your gut bacteria? How does it impact your microbiome over time?
Your gut plays a major role in digestion, immunity, inflammation, and even brain function. When medications are used long-term, they can shift that delicate balance in ways most people aren’t told about. And that’s serious.
This isn’t about fear — it’s about awareness. The more you understand, the better decisions you can make about your health.
Stay informed. Ask questions. Protect your gut.
