When someone experiences a paradoxical reaction to a medication, that patient gets an effect that is opposite of what is to be expected. For example, if a pain medication increases a patient's pain level, that would classify as a paradoxical effect.

No, you need to be under a doctor's care to take prescription medication. There could be a reaction, like an allergic reaction or the dose could be too much for your body. If anything bad happened to you because you had a reaction and had to be seen in the ER, there could be legal issues related to whoever gave you their prescription medication, as well.
