Pyridostigmine

Pyridostigmine is a medication that helps improve communication between nerves and muscles. It works by enhancing the effect of a chemical called acetylcholine, which is essential for muscle contractions. This medication is often used to treat conditions like myasthenia gravis, a disorder where muscles become weak and tiring. By increasing acetylcholine levels, pyridostigmine helps strengthen muscle strength and reduce fatigue. It is usually taken in tablet form and requires careful dosing under medical supervision to ensure effectiveness and safety.
