Typical dosage for Pyridostigmine

  • Immediate-release tablets and 60 mg/5 mL oral solution (liquid): The typical dose is 600 mg by mouth per day. People with mild myasthenia gravis might only need 60 mg to 360 mg per day. But those with more severe myasthenia gravis might need up to 1,500 mg per day. Your provider will help you space out your total dose throughout the day.
  • Extended-release tablets: The typical dose is 180 mg to 540 mg by mouth once or twice daily. The doses should be separated by at least 6 hours.

Your provider will adjust your dose based on how well it's helping your condition, whether you have kidney problems, and whether you're having side effects.
