Actual dosing is set by individual. I'm on 90 3x per day and allowed at my discretion to take up to 2 extra doses a day if I feel I need it.

I see that a lot of people are take high doses of mestinon. My neuro doctor said no more than 90 mg at a time and no more than 240mgs in one day.

Besides I have trouble tolerating any more than 90 mg in a 4 hour period and definitely no more than 240 in a day. If I take 90 then my muscles get super spasmy, I start to get the really bad stomach side effects, and the migraines become unbearable. I have had what they said was an overdose before. That was really bad scary. I was taking recommended amount.

So just curious what actual dosing is and if anyone else has these issues with higher doses. Thanks all......
