4. Talk to your doctor about continuous drug infusion
A simple way to potentially rule out any potential fluctuations in medication delivery and natural or supplementary dopamine levels is through the continuous drug delivery, via a system such as the duodenal infusion, which sees the medication travels through a tube directly into the intestine, at carefully monitored intervals or via a continuous flow.
Whilst the methods that facilitate continuous flow and infusion can be potentially intrusive and even a little invasive for the person affected, they are a great way to ensure a healthy and consistent supply of the medication that a person needs in order to be able to function properly and effectively.
Due to the potentially complicated and even expensive facilitation of a system like this, many people with dyskinesia don’t actually know too much about things like continuous drug infusion, which is a shame, as it can be an effective way of managing a condition as challenging as dyskinesia can be.
