ONCE-A-WEEK PILL FOR SCHIZOPHRENIA SHOWS PROMISE IN CLINICAL TRIALS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Lyndra Therapeutics has created a once-a-week pill for treating the symptoms of schizophrenia. The pill contains a widely used medication for managing the disease. A phase 3 clinical trial conducted by Lyndra Therapeutics showed that the patients who took the once-a-week pill maintained consistent levels of the medication just as well as daily doses of the drug. Making the drug easier to administer makes it easier to ensure that patients are receiving their medication.
