Description

Magnesium L- aspartate is a source of magnesium, combined as a chelate with L-aspartic acid. Both magnesium and L-aspartic acid play important roles in human metabolism. Magnesium L- aspartate, taken as a dietary supplement provides both magnesium, a mineral with a fundamentally important physiological function in the body, and L-aspartic acid, a natural amino acid which occurs largely as a component of food proteins.

Uses

This medication is a mineral supplement used to prevent and treat low amounts of magnesium in the blood. Magnesium is very important for the normal functioning of cells, nerves, muscles, bones, and the heart. Usually, a well-balanced diet provides normal blood levels of magnesium. However, certain situations cause your body to lose magnesium faster than you can replace it from your diet. These situations include treatment with "water pills" (diuretics such as furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide), a poor diet, alcoholism, or other medical conditions (e.g., severe diarrhea/vomiting, stomach/intestinal absorption problems, poorly controlled diabetes).
