400mg seems to work for me
My pills say 250mg and 63% of daily value. I figured that was for a normal person. Think 2 is too much?
Hannah Mccain it just really depends on your need. I have heard of people taking up to 800mg. Maybe you should try one early in the day see how you feel and if nothing the other before bed. I don’t know, just a thought.
I read somewhere that 100mg per 10kg of bodyweight is OK. I'm 60kg though and I take 400.
I am taking 500mg once a day
I was considering taking them but I am also on gabapentin and know it can interfere. Anyone else on gaba while taking magnesium?
I didn't know that wow! I was taking gaba but it wasn't working so I stopped.
Christina Elkins yeah. I read that magnesium can interfere with the gaba uptake.
Gabapentin has made the biggest difference for me. Even with my RA. It helps so much. I hate taking meds but that one is one I’m super thankful for having.
Christy Jackson how many times a day and how many mg and I hate taking medication
I take 500 mg once a day at bedtime. My doc told me that “normal” therapeutic doses usually start at 900mg but I’m super sensitive to EVERYTHING so we started low. 600 was too much so 500 it is for me.
450-600 mg of magnesium malate. Anytime throughout the day with a couple an hr or so before bed.
I usually take all my pills before bed. Should I not?
I take all my magnesiun before bed, but others i space out between am, pm, empty stomach, full stomach etc.
I didn’t even know there were different kinds to look for!
I’m taking the wrong kind
Worst form according to whom? And, worst for what? Mg Sulfate is epsom salt. I need more information. Lol.
Kimberly Burkett yes, more information. I looked up magnesium and other sites say different things.
I take 500 in the morning and 1000 before bed. Start slowly. I had issues when I started.
Hi what kind if issues?
It can make you go to the bathroom. I dehydrated and got sick. Just start slowly.
Kym Rosenberg thank you
1250 mg once-daily of magnesium malate.
250 mg magnesium oxide
I haver. A. and take the mag citrate. I didn't know there were so many kinds. Which is best forr. A.?
Magnesium citrate is mostly used for constipation. LOL. I guess you're keeping regular. You can just search Google for different types of magnesium. That's what I did.
Teresa Zavala thanks I also have long history of kidney stones so the citric acid in it supposed help with that. Thank you!
