Pharmacodynamics

Magnemax is a magnesium preparation that improves metabolism and energy supply to tissues. Its active substance, magnesium orotate, replenishing the deficiency of magnesium and orotic acid in the body, participates in the synthesis of protein and nucleic acids, in providing basic energy and a number of mitochondrial processes, in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates. It has antiaggregatory, antispasmodic, antiarrhythmic action.
Magnesium is an essential trace element that is necessary for the implementation of more than 300 enzymatic reactions, for the regulation of cell permeability and neuromuscular excitability. Has a curariform effect on the endings of cholinergic neurons with a decrease in the release of acetylcholine.
In the body, magnesium interacts synergistically with calcium only partially. As a result of competitive inhibition of calcium, magnesium can displace it from the binding sites, acting as a physiological calcium antagonist.

Pharmacokinetics

After oral administration, about 35-40% of the dose taken is absorbed. With hypomagnesemia, the absorption of magnesium ions is stimulated. Orotic acid salts potentiate the absorption of magnesium.
Magnesium passes into breast milk.
It is excreted through the kidneys. With a deficiency of magnesium in the body, its excretion decreases, with an excess, it increases.

Indications for use

The use of Magnemax is indicated for established magnesium deficiency, isolated or caused by other deficiency conditions, which is accompanied by the following symptoms: slight sleep disturbance, increased irritability and fatigue, pain, cramps and / or tingling sensation in the muscles, gastrointestinal cramps.

Contraindications

Absolute:
    impaired renal function;
    urolithiasis disease;
    predisposition to the formation of calcium-magnesium-ammonium-phosphate stones;
    cirrhosis of the liver with ascites;
    lactose intolerance, lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption syndrome;
    age under 18;
    hypersensitivity to the components of the drug.
Care should be taken to use Magnemax with the simultaneous use of magnesium-containing drugs (including antacids, laxatives), potassium-sparing diuretics, calcium-containing drugs or digitalis drugs, during pregnancy and lactation.

Magnemax, instructions for use: method and dosage

Magnemax tablets are taken orally, before meals, with a sufficient amount of liquid.
Recommended dosage: during the first 7 days - 2 pcs. 3 times a day, then - 1 pc. 2-3 times a day. The total duration of the course of treatment is 28 days.

Side effects

    from the immune system: allergic reactions;
    from the gastrointestinal tract: diarrhea, unstable stools.

Overdose

Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, lowering blood pressure (BP), respiratory depression, depression, slow reflexes, anuric syndrome, coma, cardiac arrest. Magnesium poisoning is unlikely to occur with normal kidney function. Magnesium-related toxic reactions mainly develop in renal failure, and their degree depends on the concentration of magnesium in the blood serum.
Treatment: the appointment of forced diuresis, rehydration. In patients with renal insufficiency, peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis is necessary.

Special instructions

Adverse events from the gastrointestinal tract usually go away on their own after lowering the dose of the drug.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and complex mechanisms

The use of Magnemax does not affect the patient's ability to drive vehicles and complex mechanisms.

Application during pregnancy and lactation

It is allowed to use Magnemax tablets during pregnancy and breastfeeding only strictly according to the indications and prescription of a doctor.

Childhood use

It is contraindicated to use Magnemax for the treatment of patients under the age of 18 years.

With impaired renal function

The use of Magnemax is contraindicated in case of impaired renal function, urolithiasis or a predisposition to the formation of calcium-magnesium-ammonium-phosphate stones.

For violations of liver function

The use of Magnemax is contraindicated in liver cirrhosis with ascites.

Drug interactions

    tetracycline, iron and sodium fluoride preparations: their absorption may decrease;
    aminoquinolines, penicillamine, quinidine: simultaneous use is not recommended; an interval of 2-3 hours should be observed between the use of these funds and magnesium;
    diuretics, muscle relaxants, oral contraceptives, glucocorticosteroids, insulin: reduce the clinical effect of the drug;
    preparations containing aluminum: magnesium can help increase the absorption of aluminum in the body;
    digitalis preparations: their absorption in the body is impaired; caution is required when used simultaneously with Magnemax;
    aminoglycoside antibiotics, cisplatin, cyclosporin A: promote increased magnesium excretion;
    furosemide and thiazide diuretics, erlotinib, cetuximab, proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, pantoprazole), pentamidine, amphotericin B, foscarnet, rapamycin: can cause magnesium deficiency in the body, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the drug.

Terms and conditions of storage

Keep out of the reach of children. Store at temperatures up to 25 ° C.
