I read this sentence in my notebook. I remember I wrote it down many years ago from dictionary.com but now I can't find it anywhere.

What does it mean?

Her medications did not agree with her.

Does it mean 1) The medicine she took didn't work on her disease or 2) The medicine she took made her feel sick.

Re: Her medicatins did not agree with her.

I don't understand why it was hard to find. It's a common expression. (See below.)

Ron: Did you try the flounder?
Bob: I did.
Ron: Did you like it?
Bob: I liked it for taste, but it didn't agree with me.
Ron: I'm sorry to hear that.

Silverobama, how much online research do you do before you ask us for the meanings of words and phrases?
