Neostigmine is a drug used to treat muscle weakness. It increases the ability of muscles to contract by increasing the concentration of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This medication is often used to treat muscle weakness caused by disorders of the neuromuscular junction, such as myasthenia gravis. Neostigmine may also be used to restore muscle function after surgery, particularly to restore respiratory muscle function after anesthesia. In Hong Kong, neostigmine is usually given by health care workers in hospitals or clinics and should be used according to a doctor's advice and prescription. When using neostigmine, patients should pay close attention to any adverse reactions and follow their doctor's dosing instructions. If any unusual symptoms occur, seek medical attention immediately.
HOW TO USE: NEOSTIGMINE is an intramuscular injection, usually given by a health care provider in a hospital or clinic. Patients should receive injections as directed by their physician, usually every 4 to 6 hours. During use, patients should keep their bodies relaxed so that the injection can be administered more easily.
Dosage Guidelines: The starting dose for adults is usually 0.5 to 2 mg, and your physician may adjust the dose based on the severity of the condition and individual response. Dosage for children is based on age and weight and usually starts at a lower dose. The doctor will determine the most suitable dose based on the patient's specific situation and needs. Patients should strictly follow the doctor's recommendations when using the drug and never adjust the dose on their own.
NEOSTIGMINE is a drug used to treat muscle weakness. Common side effects include muscle twitching, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Some patients may have allergic reactions, such as skin redness and swelling and difficulty breathing. Long-term use of NEOSTIGMINE may affect the heart, causing the heartbeat to be too fast or too slow. If serious side effects occur, seek help from your doctor immediately. When using NEOSTIGMINE, you should pay close attention to your physical condition and seek medical attention as soon as possible if you have any abnormalities.
