Indications and Usage:
Indication pyridostigmine bromide oral solution usp is useful in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.
Warnings:
Warnings although failure of patients to show clinical improvement may reflect underdosage, it can also be indicative of overdosage. as is true of all cholinergic drugs, overdosage of pyridostigmine bromide oral solution may result in cholinergic crisis, a state characterized by increasing muscle weakness which, through involvement of the muscles of respiration, may lead to death. myasthenic crisis due to an increase in the severity of the disease is also accompanied by extreme muscle weakness, and thus may be difficult to distinguish from cholinergic crisis on a symptomatic basis. such differentiation is extremely important, since increases in doses of pyridostigmine bromide oral solution or other drugs of this class in the presence of cholinergic crisis or of a refractory or "insensitive" state could have grave consequences. osserman and genkins 1 indicate that the differential diagnosis of the two types of crisis may require the use of tensilon tm (edrophonium chloride) as well as c

Dosage and Administration:
Dosage and administration pyridostigmine bromide oral solution is available in the following dosage form: oral solution raspberry-flavored, containing 60 mg pyridostigmine bromide per teaspoonful (5 ml). this form permits accurate dosage adjustment for children and "brittle" myasthenic patients who require fractions of 60 mg doses. it is more easily swallowed, especially in the morning, by patients with bulbar involvement. dosage the size and frequency of the dosage must be adjusted to the needs of the individual patient. oral solution the average dose is ten 5 ml teaspoonfuls daily, spaced to provide maximum relief when maximum strength is needed. in severe cases, as many as 25 teaspoonfuls a day may be required, while in mild cases one to six teaspoonfuls a day may suffice. note: for information on a diagnostic test for myasthenia gravis, and for the evaluation and stabilization of therapy, please see product literature on tensilon tm (edrophonium chloride).
Contraindications:
Contraindications pyridostigmine bromide oral solution is contraindicated in mechanical intestinal or urinary obstruction, and particular caution should be used in its administration to patients with bronchial asthma. care should be observed in the use of atropine for counteracting side effects, as discussed below.
Adverse Reactions:
Adverse reactions the side effects of pyridostigmine bromide oral solution are most commonly related to overdosage and generally are of two varieties, muscarinic and nicotinic. among those in the former group are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, increased peristalsis, increased salivation, increased bronchial secretions, miosis and diaphoresis. nicotinic side effects are comprised chiefly of muscle cramps, fasciculation and weakness. muscarinic side effects can usually be counteracted by atropine, but for reasons shown in the preceding section the expedient is not without danger. as with any compound containing the bromide radical, a skin rash may be seen in an occasional patient. such reactions usually subside promptly upon discontinuance of the medication. to report suspected adverse reactions, contact rising pharma holdings, inc. at 1-844-874-7464 or fda at 1-800-fda-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.
