Active ingredients

Magnesium sulphate 1500 mg, diluted in the drip

The dose is adjusted individually, based on the medical consultation. Every substance is pharmaceutical grade, given intravenously for higher bioavailability.

Intravenous magnesium is cleared by the kidneys, and an excess (hypermagnesaemia) is an absolute contraindication to giving more. That is why kidney function is checked at the assessment and the drip is given slowly. Contraindicated in kidney failure, Addison's disease and barbiturate poisoning.

The SYNERVA method

STEP 01

Consultation

We assess your health and decide whether this protocol is right for you.

STEP 02

For everyday intake, oral magnesium is the first option and is enough for most people. Whether the intravenous route is right for you is decided at the assessment.

✕Kidney failure — magnesium is cleared by the kidneys and can accumulate
✕Confirmed hypermagnesaemia — an absolute contraindication to giving more
✕Addison's disease

The full list of contraindications is discussed during the consultation.

Frequently asked questions

Why is it given slowly?

Because intravenous magnesium given quickly causes a feeling of warmth, flushing and a drop in blood pressure. The 1500 mg are diluted and run over 40 minutes — the time itself is what keeps the drip comfortable.

Why does kidney function matter?

Because magnesium is cleared by the kidneys. With normal kidney function an excess is rare, but in kidney failure magnesium builds up, and hypermagnesaemia shows as muscle weakness, low blood pressure, nausea and confusion. That is why it is checked before the drip is given.

Why not tablets?

For most people, tablets are enough. The limit comes with high doses: absorption from the gut is limited, and the unabsorbed surplus draws water into the bowel, so the laxative effect appears before your stores are topped up.

How much does the magnesium drip cost?

250 RON, medical assessment included. Available at the clinic or at home in Bucharest and Ilfov.
