  • Title: Oral neostigmine and lymphatic absorption in a myasthenia gravis patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).
    Author: Chan PC, Tam SC, Cheng IK.
    Journal: Perit Dial Int; 1990; 10(1):93-6. PubMed ID: 2085592.
    Abstract:
    The effects of oral neostigmine on peritoneal lymph absorption and transcapillary and net ultrafiltration were studied in a myasthenia gravis patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Oral neostigmine decreased lymphatic absorption, but only up to a threshold dose. The effect on net ultrafiltration however was nullified to some extent by a concurrent decrease in cumulative transcapillary ultrafiltration.
