E-drug: Myasthenia gravis (MG)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear e-druggers,
Can anybody kindly supply me with any information on:
1. MG prevalence and treatment in developing countries?
2. In South Africa, the cost of the only registered oral cholinergic
(pyridostigmine bromide) is approximately US$0.22 per 10mg tablet in
the private sector. Are cheaper alternatives/equivalents available
internationally?
3 Strategies to facilitate the early diagnosis and proper/affordable
treatment of MG/rare chronic conditions?
Information on the above will be sincerely appreciated.
Kind regards
Leona
