Mycophenolate and methotrexate are better tolerated than azathioprine in myasthenia gravis
Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease, caused by autoantibodies directed against components of the neuromuscular junction, frequently causing disabling muscle weakness. Current treatment strategy usually involves initiating the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor pyridostigmine, and if this is not effective or tolerated, corticosteroids. Due to the high side-effect burden of steroids, steroid-sparing immunosuppressives are frequently utilized to maintain remission whilst allowing reduction of steroid dose.

Drug-induced interstitial lung disease: a narrative review of a clinical conundrum
Expert Rev Respir Med. 2024 Mar 19:1-17. doi: 10.1080/17476348.2024.2329612. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is increasing in incidence, due to the use of many new drugs across a broad range of cancers and chronic inflammatory diseases. The presentation and onset of DI-ILD are variable even for the same drug across different individuals. Clinical suspicion is essential for identifying these conditions, with timely drug cessation an important determinant of outcomes.AREAS COVERED: This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date summary of epidemiology, risk fac...
