The effects are mutual, but something has to be said about the fact that, when they're not currently being influenced by it, Peter's comments clearly indicate he does not enjoy it at all, while she seems to find no real issue with it. They can't control the urge, but its clear he doesn't want it and is unwilling to give into it, which makes it rather skeevy when she deliberately uses it against him, as she did when she tried to pressure him into leaving New York.

At the very least, its effecting their brain chemistry to make them attracted to one-another artificially, which has, and should, be depicted as synonymous with using date rape drugs. Even if they've not actually had sex (which, while technically true, they have been shown almost doing so before it was interrupted, and during which Peter's narration indicated he did NOT want to go through with it but couldn't stop), it doesn't change the fact that they're engaging in sexual activity that Peter's not giving real consent to.
