I was recently diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and prescribed Pyridostigmine ER 180mg Tablets. I've started taking the medication, and I want to know what others' experiences are like. What should I be aware of when taking this drug? I want to make sure I have as smooth a journey as possible.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about this medication. Some people swear by it, while others report severe side effects. I'd recommend keeping a close eye on how your body reacts, as it can vary.

This medication has been a game-changer for me. I've seen a significant improvement in muscle strength, but I did experience some side effects like diarrhea and excessive sweating. My doctor helped me manage it, though.

Remember, if you experience trouble breathing or severe muscle weakness, seek medical help immediately. Pyridostigmine ER can sometimes cause these issues, so better be safe than sorry.

I was worried about the side effects, but so far, it’s been manageable. I try to take it with food to avoid stomach issues.

I haven’t had any severe side effects, but I do experience some mild symptoms like excessive saliva production. It’s pretty annoying, but I’m hoping it gets better over time.

Be cautious with this medication. I had an allergic reaction to it. I experienced swelling of the mouth, face, and lips.
