There appears to be a relationship between Parkinson's disease and gambling addiction. The use of medication to treat Parkinson's disease, particularly dopamine agonists, has been associated with an increased risk of developing compulsive behaviors such as gambling addiction. Studies have found that pathological gambling is a potential complication in a small percentage of patients with Parkinson's disease, and the risk may be higher than in the general population. Additionally, individual differences in dopaminergic neurotransmission in the brain may play a role in the development of compulsive behaviors in Parkinson's patients.
