I was recently prescribed Pyridostigmine 60mg Tablets to help manage my myasthenia gravis symptoms. The medication has been a game-changer in improving my muscle strength, but I've also experienced some side effects that have been concerning. I wanted to start this thread to see if anyone else has had similar experiences and to share tips on managing these side effects. The urgent side effects listed are really scary. Has anyone else had trouble with any of these symptoms? I’m particularly interested in hearing from people who have been on this medication for a while. How do you manage the side effects, and has your body adjusted to the medication over time? I’m also curious about how often people need to take it daily, and if it's necessary to take it at the prescribed times or if it's okay to just take it whenever, regardless of hunger levels. It seems like so many things can affect my daily function.
