Side effects of combined therapy of methylprednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulin in Guillain-Barré syndrome.

M Odaka1, M Tatsumoto, E Hoshiyama, K Hirata, N Yuki.   

Abstract

Side effects were compared in 9 patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome treated with standard intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) only and in 9 treated with combined methylprednisolone and IVIg therapy. Headache occurred in 2 in both groups, indicative that pre-infusion with steroids does not prevent headache. Transient liver function disturbances were present in 2 patients of the former group and in 6 of the latter. Copyright 2005 S. Karger AG, Basel.
