Mucinex (guaifenesin) is not specifically mentioned in my knowledge base for managing mucus in myasthenia gravis.

I use to but my pulmonologist ran the allergy test and Im allergic to dog dander and other things. I'm sure Mestinon and MG are culprits as well. Anyway... I take a low dose allergy pill, nasal spary, eye drops and inhaler twice a day. They help but when MG has its way my nose runs like a little kid🤣🤣
Stay hopeful fam😎

I have used both benadryl and Mucinex without any reactions to date. But that is aways subject to change I have found out as I get more mature (age). HaHa. Just another gift that life gives.
