DRUG INTERACTIONS
Caution with quinolone antibiotics ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ magnesium forms insoluble complexes with quinolones, decreasing drug absorption. Take drug 2 hours before or 6 hours after minerals.
Caution with tetracycline antibiotics ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ tetracyclines form insoluble complexes with magnesium, reducing absorption of both. Separate dose by at least 3 hours.
Caution with calcium channel blockers and other hypotensive medication ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ magnesium and taurine may have additive effects and enhance the hypotensive effect. Monitor blood pressure.
Caution with lithium ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ taurine may slow down how quickly lithium is metabolised, thereby increasing blood levels.
Caution with potassium-sparing diuretics ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ these drugs also have magnesium-sparing properties which could, theoretically, lead to increased magnesium levels. Monitor.
Caution with bisphosphonates ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ magnesium can decrease absorption. Separate dose by at least 2 hours.
Caution with skeletal muscle relaxants ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ magnesium can potentiate effects.
Caution with levodopa ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ vitamin B6 can lower levodopa levels. This effect is prevented by the administration of a dopa-decarboxylase inhibitor with levodopa, as is common clinical practice.
Caution with phenobarbital and phenytoin (anticonvulsants) ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ high doses of vitamin B6 can decrease their efficacy. Monitor
CAUTIONS
High dose magnesium is contraindicated in people with compromised renal function and heart block.
Caution in individuals with low blood pressure ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ magnesium supplementation can lower blood pressure. Monitor.
SIDE EFFECTS
Magnesium can cause diarrhoea and gastric irritation in sensitive individuals (usually occur at doses over 350mg elemental magnesium).
