GOOD NEWS! Researchers have created a biodegradable gel that delivers Parkinson’s medications through a SINGLE weekly shot, REPLACING the need for multiple daily pills. Injected just under the skin, the gel steadily releases levodopa and carbidopa, helping keep tremors AND stiffness in check. 🧪🧵⬇️

Seems like that's something that should exist...
