neostigmine and External Ophthalmoplegia

neostigmine has been researched along with External Ophthalmoplegia in 26 studies

Neostigmine: A cholinesterase inhibitor used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and to reverse the effects of muscle relaxants such as gallamine and tubocurarine. Neostigmine, unlike PHYSOSTIGMINE, does not cross the blood-brain barrier.
neostigmine : A quaternary ammonium ion comprising an anilinium ion core having three methyl substituents on the aniline nitrogen, and a 3-[(dimethylcarbamoyl)oxy] substituent at position 3. It is a parasympathomimetic which acts as a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.

"A 70-year-old man with known vascular disease, who had bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia, and an 18-month-old girl with a long-term variable esotropia culminating in a postinfectious oculopharyngeal neuropathy both responded with a positive edrophonium chloride (Tensilon) test, strongly suggesting the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis."3.66Ocular myasthenia gravis mimicking pseudointernuclear ophthalmoplegia and variable esotropia. ( Acers, TE, 1979)
"The patients complained of diplopia that had developed several hours after the snake bites."1.32Anticholinesterase therapy for patients with ophthalmoplegia following snake bites: report of two cases. ( Choi, SH; Han, KS; Hong, SH; Hong, YS; Jung, IC; Lee, SW; Yoon, YH, 2004)
