Okay, so I took some Lariam (the once-a-week anti-malaria pill) for the first time yesterday, and last night I had one of the scariest dreams of my life. It wasn't until this afternoon that it occured to me that one of Lariam's possible side effects is to induce nightmares. So, my question, why does an anti-malaria pill cause people to have bad dreams? What sort of mechanism would cause this effect? Why not really good dreams?
