If you submit "water" as a search term to drugs.com you will be as surprised at the results returned.

 This search proved that nearly all of the comments on their search result webpage are canned comments. Perhaps medical-related websites packed with ads are not the best place to look up drug side-effects or illnesses.

 Here is the water search result with text unedited:

 Water is a sterile solution used to mix and dilute other medicines.
 Do NOT use water if:

 How To Use Water...

 Use water as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

     If you miss a dose of water, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

 Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use water.

 Important Safety Information...

 This should make anyone wonder about search results from websites for drugs.
