摘要：
Devices and methods for distributing a fluid, e.g., a fluid drug, are disclosed. Fluid-drug distribution can be advantageously utilized to help patients suffering from a disorder that affect fine motor skill usage, e.g., Parkinson's Disease. Some aspects are directed to dosing containers that are adapted to distribute one or more selected dosages of fluid from the container. In some instances, the containers are adapted to be operable by patients with hindered fingertip motor control to help dispense a fluid-drug, such as a fluid including carbidopa and levodopa. Other aspects are directed to a kit for distributing a fluid drug that can be stored with a longer shelf life in solid form. Also discussed herein are methods for distributing a fluid drug for treating a disorder such as Parkinson's Disease.
