Man Sues Glaxo, Claims Parkinson’s Drug Made Him Gay Sex Addict

January 31, 2011 by Andy Towle

Requip

A French man is suing GlaxoSmithKline, the makers of the Parkinson's drug Requip, claiming it wreaked havoc on his life, AFP reports:

The 51-year-old's lawyers say their client's behaviour changed radically after he was first administered the drug in 2003 for the illness, which causes tremors, slows movement and disrupts speech.

Didier Jambart, a married father-of-two who says he has attempted suicide three times, claims he became addicted to Internet gambling, losing the family's savings and stealing to feed his habit.

He also became a compulsive gay sex addict and began exposing himself on the Internet and cross-dressing. His risky sexual encounters led to him being raped, his lawyers said.

He is seeking $610,000 from the pharmaceutical company.
