As handoflixue said, potential for recreational use. (This even scares them about freaking bupropion, which doesn't actually have any.) Long-term effects not well known, because horses rarely take the Beck depression inventory. Just plain bizarre effects given current model - depression does not normally goes away in an hour, and if it goes away in less than a week you panic, lock the patient up, and watch for signs of mania.
