A member asked:

Took magnesium glycinate 200mg per day from 2/7 - 2/10; on 2/11 increased dose to 400mg per day. on 2/13, started to have loose stools every morning. stopped the supplement on 2/16. still having loose stools, when will the loose stool stop?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Loose stools: Since the diarrhea seems to be a side effect of magnesium, it should subside in a day or two. In the meantime avoid harsh roughage and take kaopectate or Imodium as needed.
