My Neuro started me slowly with a total of 60mg taken two times a day 30mg and then another 30 mg. Symptoms continue weakness continues so she has increased my dosage to 60mg 3 times daily. I have not had any side effects. With dose increase I think I might be having pimples or blisters but I get those often so I can not tell if it is this med or not. May just be the sun or food??

Mestinon worked well at first and still does a good job. Side effects - GI tract, moodyness, sweating etc.

Lots of exacerbations---usually mild

It gives me the strength to complete simple tasks that I will never take for granted again!

I take anywhere between 300-600mg a day, depending on my symptoms.

Before Mestinon I had difficulty breathing. Mestinon helps with most of my muscles and I have to be sensitive to how my body reacts to it. Sometimes I take too much and have to lower my dose.

Started on 60mg 3x/day now up to 60mg 4x/per day

Helps most days

Very positive response. Side effects are actually helpful to me. I had dryn eyes and throat plus slower GI so more tears and more saliva and speeded up GI were a positive.

Initial dosage 60mg twice a day, only saw and felt difference when dosage increased to 60mg 4 times day. Slight dizziness.
