    I ran into the same issue. Unfortunately I take 4 of the 180mg ER tabs daily and they had to substitute a 3 month supply of 60mg tabs instead. So that is 3 tabs each dose … 12 per day. Not fun, especially because I often have trouble with swallowing due to my MG. But I have to be on it. I tried the liquid Pyridostigmine but my insurance company would not approve it for more than 1 month. Besides, it was unpleasant tasting. But we carry on.
