Precautions & Disclaimer
- Gastrointestinal Changes: Magnesium oxide is an osmotic compound that can draw water into the large intestine. If taken on an empty stomach or in large amounts, it may cause mild bloating, abdominal cramping, or loose stools/laxative effects. Pairing it with a solid meal minimizes this issue.
- Medication Interactions (Critical): High doses of magnesium can bind to specific oral prescription drugs in the gut, severely reducing their absorption. Space this supplement at least 2 hours before or 4 to 6 hours after taking tetracycline/fluoroquinolone antibiotics, thyroid medications (Levothyroxine), or osteoporosis treatments (bisphosphonates).
- Medical Clearance: Consult a healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking daily medications, or have a history of kidney disease (as compromised kidneys cannot efficiently excrete excess magnesium).
- Storage: Store tightly closed at standard room temperature (15°C to 30°C) away from localized humidity. Do not use if the under-cap protective safety foil is punctured or missing. Keep out of reach of children.
