DISTINON contains pyridostigmine, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor used to enhance neuromuscular transmission in myasthenia and other neuromuscular disorders. Pyridostigmine increases acetylcholine levels at nerve endings, which improves muscle strength and reduces symptoms of weakness. This drug is recommended for patients with myasthenia and other conditions associated with impaired neuromuscular transmission.
The product is used for:
Myasthenia
Neuromuscular transmission disorders
Muscle dysfunction caused by impaired nerve impulse transmission
Other neuromuscular conditions as prescribed by a doctor
DISTINON is taken orally, typically 1 tablet (60 mg) 2-3 times per day, depending on the patient’s condition. The dosage may be adjusted by the doctor based on the severity of the disease. It is recommended to take the medication after meals with water. The duration of treatment is determined by the doctor.
