Is that AbbVie’s Produodopa ? Is that the one? I didn’t realize it was one around your neck. It’s been approved elsewhere but not in the US. It’s by the same company that does the direct pump to the stomach, which requires surgery. I’m trying to hang on for the under the skin one !

Supposedly coming along think it’s mid year or later.🙄

Not what you're looking for?
