Is it normal to have reactions to medicines I took before surgery?

Ever since my surgery last June I've had severe reactions to a cough medicine, cortisone and Advil. I get deep cramps in the center on my gut, sweating, and nausea. It lasts about 15 minutes and then goes away as easily as it showed up. The pain is really bad.
