WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Nicotine may help ease some of the debilitating and uncontrollable tremors and twitches caused by Parkinson’s disease and its treatment, researchers said on Wednesday.Monkeys given a nicotine-laced drink before drug treatment for Parkinson’s showed a 50 percent reduction in movements associated with the treatment. They showed a 35 percent drop in the movements, known as dyskinesias, when given the drink after treatments.
