In addition, skin cancer was reported in around 1% of patients
in the placebo controlled clinical trials. Nevertheless, scientific
evidence suggests that Parkinson’s disease, and not any
medicine in particular, is associated with a higher risk of skin
cancer (not exclusively melanoma). You should speak with
your doctor about any suspicious skin changes.
Parkinson's disease is associated with symptoms of
hallucinations and confusion.
In post marketing experience these symptoms have also been
observed in Parkinson's disease patients treated with
Rasagiline Accord .
There have been cases of patients who, while taking one or
more medications for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease,
were unable to resist the impulse, drive or temptation to
perform an action that could be harmful to themselves or
others. These are called impulse control disorders. In patients
taking Rasagiline Accord and/or other medications used to
treat Parkinson’s disease, the following have been observed:
-
Obsessive thoughts or impulsive behaviour.
-
Strong impulse to gamble excessively despite serious
personal or family consequences.
-
Altered or increased sexual interest and behaviour of
significant concern to you or to others, for example, an
increased sexual drive.
