🎉 正解 / Correct!
解説 (JP): 一つの物事が持つ二つの異なる側面を述べるときに使います。動詞、形容詞普通形、名詞などにつけます。\n\nCommon Mistakes:\n❌ に対して: We use 'に対して' for contrasting TWO DIFFERENT subjects (e.g., dogs vs. cats). Since we are talking about the pros and cons of the EXACT SAME medicine, '反面' is correct!\n❌ に比べて: You can't compare the medicine's effectiveness... to itself! Use '反面' to show its two faces.\n❌ ばかりか: 'ばかりか' means 'not only A, but also B'. However, it usually connects things of the SAME polarity (two good things, or two bad things). Since 'highly effective' (Good) and 'strong side effects' (Bad) are opposites, use '反面'!
