Indications & Clinical Uses

Magnesium Protina is a mineral supplement used to address conditions related to low magnesium levels.

  • Hypomagnesemia: helps restore normal serum magnesium concentrations.
  • Muscle cramps: may reduce the frequency and intensity of cramps associated with magnesium deficiency.
  • Migraine prophylaxis: can be included in preventive regimens for patients with documented magnesium deficiency.

How It Works

  • Magnesium provides divalent Mg2+ ions that act as essential cofactors for numerous enzymatic reactions, including ATP synthesis, protein phosphorylation, and DNA replication. It stabilizes cellular membranes, modulates calcium channels, and supports neuromuscular transmission, thereby contributing to electrolyte balance and energy metabolism.

Side Effects

Magnesium Protina may cause adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects

  • Diarrhea: loose stools may occur.
  • Abdominal discomfort: cramping or pain in the stomach area.
  • Nausea: feeling of queasiness.
  • Flatulence: increased intestinal gas.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Hypermagnesemia: elevated blood magnesium that can lead to cardiac arrhythmias.
  • Severe hypotension: marked drop in blood pressure.
  • Respiratory depression: slowed breathing in extreme cases.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Magnesium Protina, consider the following safety measures.

  • Assess renal function: adjust use in patients with impaired kidney function.
  • Monitor serum magnesium: check levels during prolonged therapy.
  • Avoid in hypermagnesemia: contraindicated when blood magnesium is already high.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: use only if the prescriber determines benefits outweigh risks.
  • Review drug interactions: evaluate concomitant medications for potential effects.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Magnesium can interact with several medicines; awareness helps prevent adverse outcomes.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Calcium channel blockers: may increase risk of hypermagnesemia.
  • Potassium‑sparing diuretics: additive effect on serum electrolytes.
  • Tetracycline or fluoroquinolone antibiotics: magnesium chelation reduces their absorption.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Bisphosphonates: separate dosing times to avoid reduced absorption.
  • Proton pump inhibitors: may affect magnesium levels, requiring monitoring.
  • ACE inhibitors: monitor blood pressure and electrolytes during combined use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Magnesium Protina is an oral mineral supplement used to correct magnesium deficiency, support normal neuromuscular function, and maintain electrolyte balance. It is commonly prescribed for individuals with low serum magnesium, muscle cramps, or as part of preventive therapy for conditions such as migraine when magnesium deficiency is identified.

Magnesium supplies Mg2+ ions that serve as cofactors for hundreds of enzymatic reactions, including ATP production, protein synthesis, and DNA replication. By stabilizing cell membranes and modulating calcium channels, it facilitates nerve impulse transmission, muscle contraction, and overall electrolyte homeostasis.

The appropriate dose of Magnesium Protina is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s clinical condition, laboratory values, and overall health status. Dosage may vary widely, and patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions without self‑adjusting the amount.

Magnesium is an essential nutrient, and limited data suggest it can be used during pregnancy and lactation when medically indicated. However, the decision should be made by a qualified prescriber who weighs potential benefits against any risks to the mother and infant.

To place an 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 (including any cold‑chain requirements), and necessary import documentation.

Magnesium Protina provides magnesium in an oral formulation comparable to other magnesium salts such as magnesium oxide or citrate. Differences among products generally relate to elemental magnesium content, bioavailability, and tolerability. Clinicians select a specific product based on the patient’s needs, gastrointestinal tolerance, and desired elemental dose.

Store Magnesium Protina at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep the product in its original packaging, protect it from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain stability throughout its shelf life.

Magnesium Protina is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It can be taken with or without food, but if gastrointestinal upset occurs, it may be helpful to ingest it with meals. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions regarding timing and frequency.

The most serious adverse events are related to excessive magnesium levels (hypermagnesemia), which can cause cardiac arrhythmias, severe hypotension, and respiratory depression. These risks are heightened in individuals with renal impairment or when magnesium is taken together with other agents that raise serum magnesium.

Magnesium Protina should be avoided in patients with known hypermagnesemia, severe renal failure, or those who are hypersensitive to magnesium or any excipients in the formulation. It is also contraindicated when concurrent use of certain medications could lead to dangerous electrolyte disturbances without proper monitoring.
