Low dose Naltrexone (LDN) isn't currently a standard or widely studied treatment for myasthenia gravis, so there isn't strong clinical evidence to draw from specifically for MG.

Low dose Naltrexone (LDN) isn't currently a standard or widely studied treatment for myasthenia gravis, so there isn't strong clinical evidence to draw from specifically for MG.

It's definitely worth bringing up with your neurologist, as they can help weigh any potential benefits against risks given your specific situation and current treatment plan.

The treatments with the most evidence for MG include:

- Mestinon (pyridostigmine) – helps improve muscle strength
- Immunosuppressants like prednisone – reduce immune system activity
- Biologics like Soliris or Ultomiris – target specific parts of the immune system
- Thymectomy – surgical option for eligible patients
