I am curious about this... so I researched it for you:

and this: http://www.digitalnaturopath.com/cond/C491841.html also refers to LARGE doses. You know you can get magnesium from food. 3 ounces of unsalted almonds have 270mg in them. This might be the best way for you to get your mag.;) |

Littlewish, mrsd is quite correct, the amount necessary to cause weakness in a myasthenic is a very high dose. The amt of magnesium found, for example, in a vitamin pill, is just not a high enough dose to cause any problems. Actually, a certain amount of magnesium is not only beneficial, it's absolutely necessary for good health. I've taken a multivitamin for years that contains magnesium, and have never had any problems with it at all. Remember, even something as necessary and beneficial as is Mestinon to an MGer will cause weakness if one takes too much.
