METHOD FOR POSTOPERATIVE REHABILITATION OF MYASTHENIA GRAVIS PATIENTS

摘要

The method for postoperative rehabilitation of myasthenia gravis patients comprises the use of the drugs. In particular, Licorice root is used as the modulator of the endogenous synthesis of glucocorticoids at the stage of the stabilization of the autoimmune process. The increasing doses are prescribed: one capsule daily in the first week, then two capsules daily in the morning and at midday. At the same time, the dose of the glucocorticoids decreases gradually (by 5 mg every 5 days) until the maintenance dose is attained (5-10 mg daily) or these drugs are completely cancelled. Each course of the treatment comprises 2-3 months with one-month interval between the courses.
