Theres a lot worse than that:
bacteriocidal antibiotics tend to be cytotoxic with aminoglycosides causing hearing loss, fluoroquinolones causing heart problems tendon problems psychiatric problems and even more. Cdiff colitis is a deadly risk and also toxic epidermal necrolysis. These effects are noted to be happening more often than previously thought in clinical trials, in some cases because they can develop overtime rather than immediately.
