- For the prevention and treatment of magnesium deficiency
- Long-term treatment possible
In case of chronic magnesium deficiency, you should take Emgecard®2.5 mmol film-coated tablets daily for at least 4 weeks. Even a prolonged treatment (over several years) is safe provided that renal function is normal, since excess magnesium is excreted via the kidneys
Magnesium: Magnesium is a vital trace element that cannot be produced by the body itself. Therefore it must be ingested in sufficient amounts with the daily diet. Good magnesium suppliers are natural foodstuffs such as whole-grain products, unpeeled rice, nuts and seeds. Our body needs magnesium for a large number of metabolic processes. Every energy-related process – from muscle movements down to the activities of the inner organs – ultimately depends on the presence of magnesium. Moreover, magnesium has an influence on the distribution of other minerals within the body and is thus important for the body's proper electrolyte balance. Magnesium is extremely important for the muscles and the nerve system. As a component of the skeletal system, magnesium is also of vital importance for stable and healthy bones and teeth.
