I have been on Vyvart iv. I am now on the injection. Once a week 3 week break in conjunction with Mestinon. I feel iv works better than injection. Anyone else?

I did IVIG for several months but decided I wanted to try a different approach. I am currently in my third cycle of Vyvgart and it has helped my vision issues more than anything else has. Also am less fatigued. My swallowing issues were better controlled with the IVIG, though it’s not nearly as bad as when I was only on Mestinon. Hope this helps!

Yes, Vyvgart (efgartigimod alfa-fcab) is used by some people with myasthenia gravis, specifically those with anti-acetylcholine receptor antibodies. It works by lowering harmful antibodies to improve muscle function. If you're considering it, discuss with your doctor to see if it's right for you. For more details, visit Show Full Answer
