OK, Here are the answers. The first eleven are all possible side effects of top selling drugs (details below). The rest are from The Colbert Report.
goiter (Nexium)
tremors (Zoloft)
difficulty speaking (Advair)
dyspepsia (Zocor)
cardiac arrest (Aranesp)
fungal infection of the mouth (Advair)
breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue (Lipitor)
taste perversion (Nexium)
gastrointestinal hemmorhage (Plavix)
enlarged abdomen (Nexium)
Arthralgia (Plavix)
If you're on any of these drugs, don't sweat it, most of these side effects are rare. Also, I took these from seemingly reliable sources but can't confirm the accuracy of them, so feel free to investigate if you're nervous.
