Discontinuing a medication can have more side affects than the medication itself, keep her on the medication, tell her parents and her doctor and they will help ease her off the medication and then they can try new ones.

Answer:

I should advice my friend to not suspend his medication, because the best scenario is taking them. Also, I would help him to analyse carefully his situation, what are the pros and cons without taking his medication. For example, if he has depression, I would say to him that without meds he will always feel depressed, and one day he could make a bad choice about his own life, or a loved one life. Also, we medication he's able to feel better, helping the brain to produce neurotransmitters like most people.

Besides he doesn't like the side effects, I surely will make him think about what's worse? having side effects or having depressive thoughts and feelings that can lead to a pretty bad result.

10 common diseases that can cause a secondary immunodeficiency
ElenaW [278]
Secondary immunodeficiencies, also known as acquired immunodeficiencies, can result from various immunosuppressive agents, for example, malnutrition, aging and particular medications (e.g., chemotherapy, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, immunosuppressive drugs after organ transplants, glucocorticoids). For medications, the term immunosuppression generally refers to both beneficial and potential adverse effects of decreasing the function of the immune system, while the term immunodeficiency generally refers solely to the adverse effect of increased risk for infection. Many specific diseases directly or indirectly cause immunosuppression. This includes many types of cancer, particularly those of the bone marrow and blood cells (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma), and certain chronic infections. Immunodeficiency is also the hallmark of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) , caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV directly infects a small number of T helper cells and also impairs other immune system responses indirectly.
