While medication has always been designed to treat ailments, there are few (if any) that come without potential side effects for other areas of the body. Those that disrupt proper circulation can all lead to the development of Raynaud's disease, including beta blockers, ADHD treatments, treatment for migraines, chemotherapy, and many over-the-counter remedies for flu and the common cold. Substances that treat high blood pressure also leave the body susceptible, as do any that slow and lower the heart rate. Each of these affects the blood vessels and circulation and, again, the extremities are the first to suffer.
