Lynette Wilson replied to the topic Pyridostigmine Side effect or allergic reaction? in the forum Healthcare and Myasthenia Gravis 3 months ago
i take 360mg a day. I went down to 120mg a day. But my optical MG came back. I am still taking prednisone with it. You may have an allergic reaction to Pyridostigmine. As I don’t have any trouble.

Hi Paul
I live in New Zealand down the bottom of the globe.I would have thought Americans neurologists would have been up to date with Myathena Gravis. We are a very small country 5 million now.
