Complicated: In my mind, at the simplest level, they are classified as severe or non-severe reactions, which are dealt with differently (obviously). You can read more about the complicated details here: http://www.Fda.Gov/drugs/drugsafety/postmarketdrugsafetyinformationforpatientsandproviders/default.Htm.
