Poison Aftereffects Question

Sorry if this has been asked and answered previously or if I'm reading this wrong (don't have my books at moment). I'm a little confused about some of the aftereffects for the various poisons.

For example, the poison's effect is:
:1: ongoing 5 plus dazed (save ends)
and the aftereffect is
:2: dazed (save ends)

I would think based on the wording of the effect that both conditions are gone when you make the save. Doesn't that make the aftereffect meaningless?

Thanks.

A successful save ends the ongoing damage.

However, once you have saved, the aftereffect kicks in (dazed). This is a new condition requiring a new save. Which you can make at the end of your next turn.
