After reading the October 2004 Drug Watch ("Avlimil Taken for Female Sexual Dysfunction"), I wanted to describe my own experience. I took Avlimil according to the directions for the treatment of decreased libido. After two weeks of this therapy, I was experiencing panic attacks (racing heart, light-headedness, and mild hyperventilation) two or three times a day. I opted to stop taking Avlimil; after about three days I no longer had any of these symptoms.
