He suferred from myasthenia gravis for years and was treated chronically with ambenonium 20 mg daily. Because of comorbidity of uveitis with macular edema he received treatment with prednisolone 70mg daily.

The treatment was switched to haloperidol 10mg/d with gradual improvement of patient's behaviour. He was discharged from the hospital with indication to continue psychiatric, ohpthalomogic, and neurological outpatient care.</p> | ||
