-1 Injectable Magnesium

Do any of you supplement your magnesium through IM? If so, what kind of dose to you take? My understanding is that too high of a dose can cause heart palpations and through off your magnesium/calcium balance. Would like to hear some of your thoughts. Thanks!

ALERT DONT ATTEMPT IT

Gastrointestinal Effects
When toxicity does occur, the first symptoms are usually gastrointestinal. Because of magnesium’s effects as a laxative, diarrhea is one of the first symptoms associated with an overdose. Additional symptoms may include vomiting, nausea and upset stomach. Many people who have a magnesium overdose will also lose their appetite, causing unintentional weight loss.

  1. Cardiovascular Effects
    A magnesium overdose has also been associated with hypotension (a severe drop in blood pressure). It can also cause heart rhythms to slow down or become erratic (arrhythmias). When high levels accumulate in the bloodstream, it can even cause cardiac arrest.

  2. Kidney Damage
    Because your kidneys are responsible for removing excess magnesium, large quantities of this nutrient can place a great deal of strain on them. People who already suffer from kidney problems should never take magnesium supplements without doctor’s orders as this can further reduce the ability of the kidneys to filter the magnesium from the blood.

  3. Respiratory Depression
    Respiratory depression is also known as slow shallow breathing and is one of the possible symptoms of a magnesium overdose. When this occurs your breathing will be ineffective so hypoxia (low blood oxygen) is a possibility. This is extremely dangerous as the body’s cells need oxygen for the vital organs to do their jobs. Symptoms associated with hypoxia include extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, confusion and exercise intolerance.

  4. Calcium Deficiency
    Calcium and magnesium compete for absorption by the body and because of this consuming excessive amounts of magnesium may cause a calcium deficiency, especially for those with low calcium levels to begin with.
