Magnoral 1028.4 mg/10 ml Oral Solution

Magnoral is an oral magnesium medicine supplied in a pack of 20 ampoules, each containing 10 ml. The manufacturer’s leaflet identifies magnesium chloride hexahydrate as the active ingredient: 1,028.4 mg per ampoule, equivalent to 123 mg of magnesium. The leaflet describes its use for the prevention and relief of complaints that may suggest magnesium deficiency, including weakness, fatigue, irritability, nausea, cramps and tingling.

How to take Magnoral

The manufacturer’s leaflet recommends 2–3 ampoules a day for adults, with meals. Take the solution directly or dilute the contents of an ampoule in a little water, tea or fruit juice. Use in children is only on medical advice. Follow the enclosed leaflet or your doctor’s or pharmacist’s instructions.

Warnings and precautions

Do not take Magnoral if you are allergic to an ingredient, have severe kidney impairment (creatinine clearance below 30 ml/min) or have high blood magnesium (hypermagnesemia). If you have mild to moderate kidney impairment, ask a doctor about a lower dose. Magnesium can affect the absorption of some medicines: the leaflet specifies a 3–4 hour interval for bisphosphonates, certain antibiotics, phosphate products and iron. Ask a doctor or pharmacist about other medicines. The leaflet notes that the colouring E124 may cause allergic reactions. If symptoms do not improve or get worse after 30 days, consult a doctor.
