DRUG INTERACTIONS:

Caution with aminoglycoside antibiotics (e.g. gentamicin) - both it and magnesium affect muscle function, potentially leading to muscle weakness and side effects. Co-administration should be avoided.

Caution with quinolone and tetracycline antibiotics - magnesium forms insoluble complexes with drugs, decreasing drug absorption. Take drug 2 hours before or 6 hours after magnesium.

Caution with bisphosphonates - magnesium can form complexes with drug and reduce absorption. Separate dose by 2 hours.

Caution with potassium-sparing diuretics - these drugs also have magnesium-sparing properties which could, theoretically, lead to increased magnesium levels. Monitor.

Caution with skeletal muscle relaxants - magnesium can potentiate effects.

CAUTIONS:

High dose magnesium is contraindicated in individuals with compromised renal function and heart block.

Dose may be too high for children under 4 years of age. Tablets can be halved and dosed appropriately for younger children.

SIDE EFFECTS:

Magnesium can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea and diarrhoea at high doses and in sensitive individuals.
