I was watching TV the other day and a commercial came on for a restless leg syndrome medicine. The side-affects were semi-normal up to a point. This medication causes increased sexual urges and gambling.. I have never heard of gambling being a side-affect for medicine. laugh

How about Viagra sometimes causing a 4-hour long erection. Seek immediate medical attention?.. Oh, I will. I got the head-nurse on speed dial. :wink: laugh

Yes, the medication is called Mirapex. The way the narrator nonchalantly stumbles over the topic is pretty comical, too.

No, the medication isn't for gambling laugh It's for restless leg syndrome. One of the horrible side-affects to this flawed medicine is an urge to gamble.

What if you just took a half a dose?

Would you get the gambling,
or the increased libido?
