Unfortunately, there is no cure for Huntington's Disease. Treatment thus far has been limited to helping control some of the symptoms. Some drugs have aided in helping control the Chorea (involuntary movements) and others are used to help counter the emotional/ psychological effects. Research for a cure and for more effective treatments is ongoing. You can find additional information at the website for the Huntington's Disease Society of America.
