The permanent treatment is not yet established, but the symptoms can be minimized by medication, surgery, physical therapy, and stress management. The complications associated with dystonia are physical disabilities, depression, functional blindness, and pain and fatigue. Addex Therapeutics Ltd. is in the process of developing dipraglurant-ER as a metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 modulator for the treatment of dystonia.
