Description
Indications
Pyridostigmine is indicated for the treatment of muscle weakness in patients with myasthenia gravis and congenital myasthenic syndrome. This medication may also be used to reverse the effects of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents, and it has potential utility in military personnel exposed to nerve gas. Pyridostigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor that works by reducing the breakdown of acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junction, this increases the signals between nerves and muscles and relieves symptoms of muscle weakness.
