Fast-Acting, Hospital-Grade Solution for Emergency Magnesium Replacement and Obstetric Care
Uses and Clinical Benefits
-
Treatment of Pre-eclampsia & Eclampsia in Pregnancy: The gold-standard therapy for seizure prevention and management in pregnant women with pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Magnesium sulfate helps lower blood pressure and reduces the risk of life-threatening maternal and fetal complications.
-
Immediate IV Magnesium Replacement for Deficiency: For severe magnesium deficiency (hypomagnesemia) causing muscle cramps, cardiac arrhythmias, or neuromuscular symptoms. Also indicated for magnesium supplementation in patients on TPN or dealing with chronic GI losses.
-
Emergency Seizure and Arrhythmia Protocols: Rapid-acting anticonvulsant for acute seizure control and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias, especially Torsades de Pointes.
-
Obstetric & Critical Care Protocols: Used extensively in labor & delivery for preterm labor to protect neonatal brains, and in the ICU for metabolic stabilization.
Dosage & Administration Guidelines
For Preeclampsia & Eclampsia (Pregnancy Protocol):
- Loading Dose: 4–6 grams IV over 15–20 mins
- Maintenance Dose: 1–2 grams per hour as a continuous IV infusion (adjust dose based on clinical response and serum magnesium levels)
- Administration: IV infusion, always under close monitoring by trained obstetric or ICU staff
For Severe Hypomagnesemia:
- Usual Dose: 1–2 grams IV over 15–30 mins, repeat as needed per physician/serum levels
For Torsades de Pointes or Acute Arrhythmia:
- Dose: 1–2 grams IV push over 15 mins, per ACLS protocol
Always dilute as instructed by manufacturer guidance to reduce risk of irritation. Monitor deep tendon reflexes, respiratory rate, urine output, and vital signs during administration.
Side Effects & Warnings
- Common Side Effects: Flushing, mild hypotension, warmth, sweating, nausea, injection site pain
- Serious Side Effects: Depressed reflexes, respiratory depression, hypotension, cardiac arrest (especially with overdose or renal insufficiency)
- Magnesium Toxicity Warning: Monitor magnesium serum levels and for signs of toxicity; keep calcium gluconate on hand as an antidote
Pregnancy & Lactation Safety
- Pregnancy (FDA Category D): Widely used in pregnancy—especially safe and effective for preeclampsia and eclampsia seizure prevention. Fetal monitoring and close maternal observation required.
- Breastfeeding: Generally safe at therapeutic doses; limited magnesium crosses into breastmilk.
Protocols & Administration
- Administer by Healthcare Professionals Only.
- Confirm IV patency and dilute as per institutional guideline.
- Monitor maternal/fetal heart rate, urine output, respiratory rate, and deep tendon reflexes, especially in obstetric use.
