Pyridostigmine Treatment Trial in Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]
Midodrine hydrochloride is the only drug demonstrated in a placebo-controlled treatment trial to improve orthostatic hypotension (OH) but it significantly worsens supine hypertension. By enhancing ganglionic transmission, pyridostigmine bromide can potentially ameliorate OH without worsening supine hypertension.To evaluate the efficacy of a single 60 ...
