Hi,

It is extensively used in people with Hypotension and Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome as it increases standing blood pressure.

The Mayo Clinic were the first ones to report this finding and the link I posted earlier shows the use of mestinon in hypotension.

My own consultant wants me to take it but unfortunately I dont tolerate mestinon very well at all.
