A disturbing side effect of certain prescription drugs used to treat movement disorders is coming to light—some patients report experiencing uncontrollable sexual urges, leading to bizarre and distressing behavior. One man describes how his father began secretly spying on his mother after starting the medication, highlighting just how extreme and life-altering these unintended consequences can be.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about odd side effects—it’s about how a drug meant to help can upend lives in unexpected ways. Stories like these raise serious questions about how well patients are warned before taking medications and whether doctors are equipped to spot these alarming reactions. It’s a reminder that even FDA-approved treatments can have dark, overlooked consequences.

The FDA is wrestling with whether to slap a serious "black box" warning on antidepressants for pregnant women. Some experts at their recent forum sounded alarms about potential risks to fetuses, while others pushed back hard, arguing these meds are both safe and often crucial for moms-to-be battling depression.

Psychiatrists are calling out an FDA advisory panel for spreading what they say is misleading information about antidepressants during pregnancy. Experts who watched the meeting claim the discussion either misrepresented facts or took them out of context, potentially causing unnecessary alarm for pregnant patients who rely on these medications.
