Which of these is a sign that a drug side effect has occurred?

A drug side effect is an unintended effect of a medicine, and it is a side effect when that effect harms the patient’s body. Not curing the intended disease is treatment failure, while giving a drug to the wrong patient is a medication error. A health worker becoming ill from handling a drug is an occupational exposure, not a side effect in the patient.
