Why Common Medications Still Hold Surprises
Metformin has been prescribed for decades, which creates a sense of safety.
Familiarity can quietly lower curiosity, even when the body sends signals.
Many side effects are discussed early, then forgotten once routines settle.

And breaking that silence starts with noticing patterns.
