A member asked:
Magnesium citrate 100mg twice a day for migraine aura (without headache ) can it cause stress on colon and also can colon become dependant on it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Magnesium: Yes, in too high a dose can stress the colon and cause the runs. A brand called "Jigsaw Magnesium" is a safer way to go if you encounter that situation. Peace and good health. Less likely than a laxative to cause dependence but it is psychologically possible.
