Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurology doctor. Can Mestinon be effective in treating myasthenia gravis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, Neostigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor that can be used to treat myasthenia gravis. However, the drug's effectiveness is influenced by the severity of the patient's condition and different clinical situations, and it must be combined with other treatment measures to address it. This is especially true for severe myasthenia gravis patients, such as corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and plasma exchange treatments. If the treatment is not effective, surgical treatment can be considered.
