Drugs & MG

The Association has collaborated with Myasthenia Alliance Australia (MAA) to produce a list of medications that can worsen symptoms in patients suffering from Myasthenia Gravis (MG). This list is designed as an aid to assist in guiding therapeutic decisions for MG patients and their doctors.

See below for “Drugs to be used with caution” information.

Important: The effect of these drugs on MG symptoms is variable from patient to patient. ALL the drugs listed CAN be used in patients with MG with appropriate caution and in the appropriate clinical setting. If a drug appears on this list, this does NOT signify that it can never be used in MG patients. If a drug does NOT appear, this does NOT signify that it is safe to use in all MG patients.
