• Reversible Inhibition of Acetylcholinesterase: Pyridostigmine hinders the activity of an enzyme known as acetylcholinesterase which usually breaks down a chemical called acetylcholine in your body.

• Increase in Acetylcholine Levels: By inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, pyridostigmine effectively increases the levels of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This chemical helps transmit nerve impulses to muscle fibres, thereby improving muscle tone and strength.
