What is Mestinon used for?
Mestinon (pyridostigmine) is used to treat myasthenia gravis, a chronic autoimmune condition that causes muscle weakness. It improves communication between nerves and muscles, thereby enhancing muscle strength.
How does Mestinon work?
It works by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which breaks down acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junction. This results in increased availability of acetylcholine, improving nerve signal transmission to the muscles.
What are the side effects of Mestinon?
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, muscle cramps, and increased salivation. At high doses, it can cause excessive cholinergic effects such as sweating and bradycardia.
How should Mestinon be taken?
Mestinon is typically taken orally several times per day, with or without food. The dosage is tailored based on symptom severity and individual response.
Is Mestinon safe for long-term use?
Yes, it is generally safe for long-term use when monitored by a healthcare provider. Regular assessments ensure effectiveness and help manage side effects.
