What Are the Side Effects of Life Extension Neuro-Mag® Magnesium L-Threonate?

Always consult your health practitioner if in doubt.

Overview

Three capsules provide 144 mg elemental magnesium from 2000 mg Magtein magnesium L-threonate, which is below the adult supplemental magnesium upper limit of 350 mg/day and generally well tolerated.
Magnesium L-threonate is described by the manufacturer as having less laxative effect than some other magnesium forms, but loose stools, nausea, or abdominal discomfort can still occur in sensitive users.
Magnesium can reduce absorption of certain medications, especially tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, bisphosphonates, and levothyroxine; separate dosing by several hours unless a clinician advises otherwise.
People with significant kidney disease should avoid unsupervised magnesium supplementation because impaired renal clearance can increase the risk of magnesium accumulation.
The label states gluten-free, non-GMO, and vegetarian; no major food allergens are listed in the capsule formula, but the excipients include cellulose derivatives, stearates, and silica.
