Compensates for magnesium deficiency.
Magnesium is a vital element that is found in all body tissues and is necessary for normal functioning of cells. It participates in most metabolic reactions, in the regulation of nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction, has antispasmodic, antiarrhythmic and anti-aggregant effects.
The body gets magnesium with food. Lack of magnesium in the body may be observed in violation of diet (diet) or increased need for magnesium (with increased physical and mental load, stress, pregnancy, use of diuretics).
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is involved in many metabolic processes, in the regulation of metabolism of the nervous system. Vitamin B6 improves the absorption of magnesium from the gastrointestinal tract and its penetration into cells.
The serum magnesium content:
– 12 to 17 mg/L (0.5 to 0.7 mmol/L) indicates moderate magnesium deficiency.
– below 12 mg/L (0.5 mmol/L) indicates severe magnesium deficiency.
Pharmacokinetics
The absorption of magnesium in the gastrointestinal tract is 50% of the oral dose. It is excreted mainly through the kidneys. In the kidneys, after glomerular filtration 70% of the magnesium present in the plasma is reabsorbed by the renal tubules in the proportion of 95% to 97%.
