What kind of side effect is this???

As I was getting ready for work this morning in the background I heard about a medication for restless leg syndrome and the side effects. I thought I was hearing things and tonight looked it up. Sure enough this is a side effect:

Pathological gambling, increased sex drive and hypersexuality have been reported in people taking medicines for Parkinson's disease such as this one, that increase dopamine activity in the brain. If you think this medicine is affecting you in this way, you should consult your doctor.

My DH thought I was making this up. Crazy Chat Icon

increased sex drive sounds a MILLION times better as a side effect than the standard 'nausea, diarrhea and vommitting'. I'll take it!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
