temporary symptoms

Short-lived health complaints

Temporary symptoms are physical or mental signs of illness or discomfort that persist for a limited time before resolving.

The phrase appears frequently in medical disclaimers and drug information: You may experience temporary symptoms such as dizziness or nausea.

The modifier temporary reassures that effects won't last, distinguishing them from chronic or permanent conditions.
