Magnesium is a vital element that is necessary for the normal functioning of cells, is involved in most metabolic reactions. Participates in the regulation of the transmission of nerve impulses and in the contraction of muscles.
The body gets magnesium with food. Lack of magnesium in the body can be observed in violation of the diet (diet) or with an increase in the need for magnesium.
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is involved in many metabolic processes, improves the absorption of magnesium from the gastrointestinal tract and its penetration into cells.
A serum magnesium content between 12 and 17 mg / l (1-1.4 mEq / l or 0.5-0.7 mmol / l) indicates moderate magnesium deficiency; below 12 mg / l (1 mEq / l or 0.5 mmol / l) - indicates a severe magnesium deficiency.

Both drugs perform one function - they normalize the amount of magnesium in the body. But between them there is a significant difference - the dosage.
