## Abstract Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is an effective treatment in Myasthenia gravis (MG) and Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS) and 5% human albumin is the replacement fluid of choice; however, it is expensive. More recently, it has been suggested that starch is a safe and cheaper choice to hum
