Possible effects on PD on sex drive is that the person can experience a dramatic increase in sexual interest and activity.

If the dosage of PD medication is too high possibility he can experience "impulse control disorders", that means "over or too much" in anything. Regards to sex drive he must have too much interest in sexual activity. So, it's very important that he must be aware that impulse control problems.
