Drugs: interesting side effects

I've never really taken any medication (except for perhaps ibuprofen for pain once and a while); recently, I started new medication.

It has a lot of side effects; thankfully, none are too bad, and some even beneficial. My concentration (good), the amount I sweat (bad), how tired I get (bad), other body function "performance" (mostly good!), all effected by one tiny pill, besides it's main function.

Well, hopefully doctors are more well informed than they were back in the 60's and 70's. I bet they would have perscribed speed (kinda like in the movie, "Requiem for a Dream" or the Stone's song, "Mother's Little Helper".)
