2 things.
1. Compulsive shopping is not a known side effect of Mirapex.
2. As with any drug prescribed by a doctor, if there are any side effects that the taker is not comfortable with, they are suppose to quit taking the drug and call their doctor.

You do not have any legal case against your doctor or the drug manufacturer. I would suggest seeing another doctor. One can be found in the yellow pages under doctor-psychologist. Compulsive shopping is a treatable disease.

Compulsive behavior IS in fact a known side effect of this medication, which makes any kind of case against the manufacturer even MORE impossible.
