A member asked:

How does ephedrine (ephedrine sulfate) treat myasthenia gravis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It doesn't: If you or a family member has myasthenia gravis, there are many approaches to successfully treat this, but ephedrine (ephedrine sulfate) is not either an approved or successful approach to treat the condition. Best to find an experienced neurologist to deal with this potentially complex disorder.
