It is characterized by muscle weakness and fatigue. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (e.g., pyridostigmine), corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), and short- and long-term immunosuppressants (e.g., mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine) are the most prescribed agents to manage the symptoms of MG. Since the launch of eculizumab (Alexion \/ AstraZeneca\u2019s Soliris) in 2017, a new wave of MG therapies with unique mechanisms of action is starting to affect the treatment landscape in the United States, highlighted by the FDA\u2019s approval of efgartigimod (Argenx\u2019s Vyvgart) in 2021 and its subcutaneous version in 2023, ravulizumab (Alexion \/ AstraZeneca\u2019s Ultomiris) in 2022, and rozanolixizumab (UCB\u2019s Rystiggo) in 2023.
