Karina a client with myasthenia gravis is to receive immunosuppressive therapy. The nurse understands that this
therapy is effective because it:

  • Decreases the production of auto antibodies that attack the acetylcholine receptors

  • Promotes the removal of antibodies that impair the transmission of impulses

  • Inhibits the breakdown of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction.

  • Stimulates the production of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction.
