Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Magnesiocard Retard is used to address conditions related to low magnesium levels.\n\n- Magnesium deficiency: helps restore normal serum magnesium concentrations.\n- Hypomagnesemia: supports correction of clinically low magnesium in patients.\n- Muscle cramps: may reduce the frequency of cramps associated with inadequate magnesium status.

How It Works

  • Magnesium Aspartate Hydrochloride dissociates to release magnesium ions, which act as essential cofactors for over 300 enzymatic reactions, stabilize ATP, and modulate calcium channels. By increasing extracellular magnesium, the drug helps normalize neuromuscular transmission, cardiac excitability, and metabolic processes that depend on magnesium‑dependent enzymes.

Side Effects

  • Magnesiocard Retard may cause a range of adverse reactions.\n\nCommon Side Effects:\n- Diarrhoea: loose stools occurring after oral intake.\n- Abdominal discomfort: cramping or pain in the stomach region.\n- Nausea: feeling of sickness or urge to vomit.\n- Flatulence: excess gas in the gastrointestinal tract.\n- Metallic taste: transient alteration of taste perception.\n- Headache: mild to moderate head pain.\n\nSerious or Rare Side Effects:\n- Hypermagnesemia: elevated blood magnesium leading to cardiac arrhythmia or hypotension.\n- Severe allergic reaction: rash, swelling, or anaphylaxis.\n- Respiratory depression: slowed breathing in extreme excess.\n- Muscle weakness: notable reduction in muscle strength.\n- Cardiac conduction abnormalities: changes in heart rhythm.\n- Kidney failure exacerbation: worsening renal function due to magnesium accumulation.

Precautions & Warnings

  • When prescribing Magnesiocard Retard, clinicians should consider several safety measures.\n\n- Baseline assessment: check serum magnesium before initiating therapy.\n- Renal impairment: adjust dose or avoid use in patients with reduced kidney function.\n- Monitor for hypermagnesemia: watch for flushing, low blood pressure, or cardiac changes.\n- Concomitant supplements: avoid simultaneous high‑dose magnesium products.\n- Pregnancy and lactation: use only if clearly indicated after risk‑benefit evaluation.\n- Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

  • Magnesiocard Retard can interact with several medicines, requiring caution.\n\nMajor Interactions (Avoid):\n- Calcium channel blockers: increased risk of hypermagnesemia.\n- Aminoglycoside antibiotics: magnesium may reduce antibacterial efficacy.\n- Bisphosphonates: concurrent use can impair absorption of both agents.\n\nModerate Interactions (Monitor Closely):\n- Loop and thiazide diuretics: may alter magnesium balance.\n- Proton pump inhibitors: potential reduction in magnesium absorption over long term.\n- Oral iron supplements: decreased magnesium uptake when taken together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Magnesiocard Retard is an oral magnesium supplement used to correct magnesium deficiency, treat clinically low magnesium (hypomagnesemia), and help reduce muscle cramps that can occur when magnesium levels are insufficient.

The compound dissociates after ingestion, releasing magnesium ions that act as essential cofactors for many enzymatic reactions, stabilize ATP, and modulate calcium channels, thereby supporting normal nerve, muscle, and cardiac function.

The dose of Magnesiocard Retard is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s serum magnesium level, age, renal function, and clinical indication. No fixed regimen is provided here.

Magnesiocard Retard should be used in pregnancy or while breastfeeding only if the potential benefit justifies any possible risk to the fetus or infant. The decision must be made by a qualified health professional.

To order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Magnesiocard Retard provides magnesium in the aspartate salt form with an extended‑release profile, which may offer more gradual absorption compared with immediate‑release magnesium oxide or citrate. This can reduce gastrointestinal upset while still delivering therapeutic magnesium levels.

Store Magnesiocard Retard at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Keep the container tightly closed and protect it from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain product stability.

Magnesiocard Retard is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It is formulated for extended release, so it should be swallowed whole and not crushed or chewed to preserve its intended absorption profile.

The most serious risks include hypermagnesemia, which can cause cardiac arrhythmias, severe hypotension, respiratory depression, and muscle weakness. Prompt medical attention is required if symptoms of excess magnesium appear.

Patients with severe renal impairment, known hypersensitivity to magnesium salts, or those already receiving high‑dose magnesium therapy should avoid Magnesiocard Retard unless a healthcare professional advises otherwise.
