A "popular" drug to treat Parkinson's Disease, Mirapex, has been linked to sudden increases in compulsive behaviors such as gambling and sex. When you stop taking the drug, you stop your dissolute behavior.
Immediately makes you wonder about famous Parkinson's patients Pope John Paul II, Billy Graham, Michael J. Fox, and, curiously, several dictators, including Mao Zedong, Adolf Hitler, and Francisco Franco. I don't guess any of the latter were on Mirapex, though. Maybe if they had been, they could just have had obsessive sex and not killed so many people.
