Best Answer

Side effects are results of taking a medication that are not the reason you are taking the drug. For example, Rogaine (monoxidil) was originally investigated as a blood pressure medication that was found to cause hair growth. For people taking it for blood pressure, the hair growth would be an (unwanted) side effect. For people taking it to grow hair, a drop in blood pressure (possibly causing dizziness) would be a side effect.

Toxic effects are any outcomes of taking a medication that are harmful to the body. Generally, they result from taking a medication at doses above the recommended level.

Drug allergy is a hypersensitivity of a particular individual person to a drug that causes an allergic reaction, typically a rash or swelling, when the drug is taken. Penicillin is one of the most common causes of drug allergy.

Idiosyncrasy (from Wiktionary) is a peculiar individual reaction to a substance that is harmless to most people.
