With all do respect, we all need to be responsible for our own health. If you have an ailment, you can either take a medication and deal with the side effects or not take the medication and deal with the sickness. Doctors aren't going to prescribe you a selection of herbs and homeopathic therapies for whatever ailment you have.
It's each of our own responsibilities to ask questions about the side effects of a medication and make your own decisions about whether the side effects are worth it or not.
This is coming from someone who's fiance is a primary care provider and does everything in her power *not* to unnecessarily prescribe medications.
