Mag2

Magnesium pidolate, the active ingredient in Mag2, is a mineral supplement presented as an oral formulation for oral use. It helps address magnesium deficiency and supports normal muscle and nerve function in adults and children when indicated. The compound provides a bioavailable source of magnesium, an essential electrolyte involved in many enzymatic processes.

GNH USA supplies Mag2 as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Mag2 (magnesium pidolate) is used as an oral mineral supplement to correct low magnesium levels and related conditions.

- Magnesium deficiency: restores normal magnesium concentrations and supports metabolic functions. - Muscle cramps: reduces frequency and intensity of involuntary muscle contractions. - Normal nerve and muscle function: contributes to proper neuromuscular transmission and muscle relaxation.

Oral magnesium pidolate may be associated with a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects: - Diarrhea: loose stools occurring after intake. - Abdominal discomfort: mild stomach pain or cramping. - Nausea: feeling of queasiness. - Flatulence: increased intestinal gas.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Hypermagnesemia: elevated serum magnesium causing cardiac arrhythmia, hypotension, or respiratory depression. - Allergic reaction: rash, itching, swelling, or anaphylaxis in rare cases.

When considering magnesium pidolate, several safety measures should be observed. - Renal impairment: assess kidney function before use, as reduced excretion may increase risk of accumulation. - Cardiovascular disease: monitor blood pressure and heart rhythm in patients with arrhythmias. - Concurrent medications: review use of drugs that affect magnesium levels. - Pregnancy and lactation: use only if clearly needed and prescribed by a healthcare professional. - Elderly patients: start with lower doses and monitor tolerance. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Magnesium pidolate can alter the absorption or effect of several medicines.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Bisphosphonates (e.g., alendronate): magnesium chelates reduce oral absorption; separate dosing by at least 2 hours. - Tetracycline antibiotics (e.g., doxycycline): magnesium forms complexes that markedly decrease antibiotic bioavailability; avoid co‑administration. - Fluoroquinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin): concurrent intake may diminish antibiotic absorption; separate dosing.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Loop diuretics (e.g., furosemide): may increase renal magnesium loss; monitor serum levels. - Calcium supplements or antacids: combined use can affect magnesium balance; observe for gastrointestinal upset. - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: additive effect on serum potassium; watch electrolyte panel.
