FDA Approves Third Treatment for PD in Less Than a Year
On February 4, the FDA approved Onapgo, an under-the-skin, infusion-based treatment for Parkinson’s. Onapgo is designed for people with progressing PD and uses a continuous infusion to help control motor symptoms such as tremor. “This approval represents another step forward in the treatment of people with Parkinson’s who experience motor fluctuations,” says Rachel Dolhun, MD, DipABLM, principal medical advisor at MJFF.
