Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Resveratrol. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Oral magnesium is safe when used in doses below the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily (7555). ...when used parenterally and appropriately. Parenteral magnesium sulfate is an FDA-approved prescription product (96484).
POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used orally in excessive doses. Doses greater than the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily frequently cause loose stools and diarrhea (7555).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
Magnesium is safe when used in doses below the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 65 mg daily for children 1 to 3 years, 110 mg daily for children 4 to 8 years, and 350 mg daily for children older than 8 years (7555,89396). ...when used parenterally and appropriately (96483).
CHILDREN: LIKELY UNSAFE
when used orally in excessive doses.
Tell patients not to use doses above the tolerable upper intake level (UL). Higher doses can cause diarrhea and symptomatic hypermagnesemia including hypotension, nausea, vomiting, and bradycardia (7555,8095).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately.
Magnesium is safe for those pregnant and breast-feeding when used in doses below the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily (7555).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: POSSIBLY SAFE
when prescription magnesium sulfate is given intramuscularly and intravenously prior to delivery for up to 5 days (12592,89397,99354,99355).
However, due to potential adverse effects associated with intravenous and intramuscular magnesium, use during pregnancy is limited to patients with specific conditions such as severe pre-eclampsia or eclampsia. There is some evidence that intravenous magnesium can increase fetal mortality and adversely affect neurological and skeletal development (12590,12593,60818,99354,99355). However, a more recent analysis of clinical research shows that increased risk of fetal mortality seems to occur only in the studies where antenatal magnesium is used for tocolysis and not for fetal neuroprotection or pre-eclampsia/eclampsia (102457). Furthermore, antenatal magnesium does not seem to be associated with increased risk of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants (104396). There is also concern that magnesium increases the risk of maternal adverse events. A meta-analysis of clinical research shows that magnesium sulfate might increase the risk of maternal adverse events, especially in Hispanic mothers compared to other racial and ethnic groups (60971,99319).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when used orally in excessive doses.
Tell patients to avoid exceeding the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily. Taking magnesium orally in higher doses can cause diarrhea (7555). ...when prescription magnesium sulfate is given intramuscularly and intravenously prior to delivery for longer than 5 days (12592,89397,99354,99355). Maternal exposure to magnesium for longer than 5-7 days is associated with an increase in neonatal bone abnormalities such as osteopenia and fractures. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that magnesium injection not be given for longer than 5-7 days (12590,12593,60818,99354,99355).
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in doses up to 100 mEq total potassium daily, not to exceed 200 mEq in a 24-hour period (95010,107989). Oral potassium chloride and potassium citrate are FDA-approved prescription products (95010,107989). Larger doses increase the risk of hyperkalemia (15). ...when administered intravenously (IV) at appropriate infusion rates (95011). Parenteral potassium is an FDA-approved prescription product (15,95011). A tolerable upper intake level (UL) for potassium has not been established; however, potassium levels should be monitored in individuals at increased risk for hyperkalemia, such as those with kidney disease, heart failure, and adrenal insufficiency (100310,107966).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately in dietary amounts.
A tolerable upper intake level (UL) has not been established for healthy individuals (6243,100310).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in dietary amounts of 40-80 mEq daily (15).
A tolerable upper intake level (UL) has not been established for healthy individuals (100310).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Resveratrol. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Concomitant use of aminoglycoside antibiotics and magnesium can increase the risk for neuromuscular weakness.
 Details
Both aminoglycosides and magnesium reduce presynaptic acetylcholine release, which can lead to neuromuscular blockade and possible paralysis. This is most likely to occur with high doses of magnesium given intravenously (13362).
|
Use of acid reducers may reduce the laxative effect of magnesium oxide.
Details
A retrospective analysis shows that, in the presence of H2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), a higher dose of magnesium oxide is needed for a laxative effect (90033). This may also occur with antacids. Under acidic conditions, magnesium oxide is converted to magnesium chloride and then to magnesium bicarbonate, which has an osmotic laxative effect. By reducing acidity, antacids may reduce the conversion of magnesium oxide to the active bicarbonate salt.
|
Theoretically, magnesium may have antiplatelet effects, but the evidence is conflicting.
Details
In vitro evidence shows that magnesium sulfate inhibits platelet aggregation, even at low concentrations (20304,20305). Some preliminary clinical evidence shows that infusion of magnesium sulfate increases bleeding time by 48% and reduces platelet activity (20306). However, other clinical research shows that magnesium does not affect platelet aggregation, although inhibition of platelet-dependent thrombosis can occur (60759).
|
Magnesium can decrease absorption of bisphosphonates.
Details
Cations, including magnesium, can decrease bisphosphonate absorption. Advise patients to separate doses of magnesium and these drugs by at least 2 hours (13363).
|
Magnesium can have additive effects with calcium channel blockers, although evidence is conflicting.
Details
Magnesium inhibits calcium entry into smooth muscle cells and may therefore have additive effects with calcium channel blockers. Severe hypotension and neuromuscular blockades may occur when nifedipine is used with intravenous magnesium (3046,20264,20265,20266), although some contradictory evidence suggests that concurrent use of magnesium with nifedipine does not increase the risk of neuromuscular weakness (60831). High doses of magnesium could theoretically have additive effects with other calcium channel blockers.
|
Magnesium salts may reduce absorption of digoxin.
Details
|
Gabapentin absorption can be decreased by magnesium.
Details
Clinical research shows that giving magnesium oxide orally along with gabapentin decreases the maximum plasma concentration of gabapentin by 33%, time to maximum concentration by 36%, and area under the curve by 43% (90032). Advise patients to take gabapentin at least 2 hours before, or 4 to 6 hours after, magnesium supplements.
|
Magnesium might precipitate ketamine toxicity.
Details
In one case report, a 62-year-old hospice patient with terminal cancer who had been stabilized on sublingual ketamine 150 mg four times daily experienced severe ketamine toxicity lasting for 2 hours after taking a maintenance dose of ketamine following an infusion of magnesium sulfate 2 grams (105078). Since both magnesium and ketamine block the NMDA receptor, magnesium is thought to have potentiated the effects of ketamine.
|
Magnesium can reduce the bioavailability of levodopa/carbidopa.
Details
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that taking magnesium oxide 1000 mg with levodopa 100 mg/carbidopa 10 mg reduces the area under the curve (AUC) of levodopa by 35% and of carbidopa by 81%. In vitro and animal research shows that magnesium produces an alkaline environment in the digestive tract, which might lead to degradation and reduced bioavailability of levodopa/carbidopa (100265).
|
Potassium-sparing diuretics decrease excretion of magnesium, possibly increasing magnesium levels.
Details
Potassium-sparing diuretics also have magnesium-sparing properties, which can counteract the magnesium losses associated with loop and thiazide diuretics (9613,9614,9622). Theoretically, increased magnesium levels could result from concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics and magnesium supplements.
|
Magnesium decreases absorption of quinolones.
Details
Magnesium can form insoluble complexes with quinolones and decrease their absorption (3046). Advise patients to take these drugs at least 2 hours before, or 4 to 6 hours after, magnesium supplements.
|
Sevelamer may increase serum magnesium levels.
Details
In patients on hemodialysis, sevelamer use was associated with a 0.28 mg/dL increase in serum magnesium. The mechanism of this interaction remains unclear (96486).
|
Parenteral magnesium alters the pharmacokinetics of skeletal muscle relaxants, increasing their effects and accelerating the onset of effect.
Details
Parenteral magnesium shortens the time to onset of skeletal muscle relaxants by about 1 minute and prolongs the duration of action by about 2 minutes. Magnesium potentiates the effects of skeletal muscle relaxants by decreasing calcium-mediated release of acetylcholine from presynaptic nerve terminals, reducing postsynaptic sensitivity to acetylcholine, and having a direct effect on the membrane potential of myocytes (3046,97492,107364). Magnesium also has vasodilatory actions and increases cardiac output, allowing a greater amount of muscle relaxant to reach the motor end plate (107364). A clinical study found that low-dose rocuronium (0.45 mg/kg), when given after administration of magnesium 30 mg/kg over 10 minutes, has an accelerated onset of effect, which matches the onset of effect seen with a full-dose rocuronium regimen (0.6 mg/kg) (96485). In another clinical study, onset times for rocuronium doses of 0.3, 0.6, and 1.2 mg/kg were 86, 76, and 50 seconds, respectively, when given alone, but were reduced to 66, 44, and 38 seconds, respectively, when the doses were given after a 15-minute infusion of magnesium sulfate 60 mg/kg (107364). Giving intraoperative intravenous magnesium sulfate, 50 mg/kg loading dose followed by 15 mg/kg/hour, reduces the onset time of rocuronium, enhances its clinical effects, reduces the dose of intraoperative opiates, and prolongs the spontaneous recovery time (112781,112782). It does not affect the activity of subsequently administered neostigmine (112782).
|
Magnesium increases the systemic absorption of sulfonylureas, increasing their effects and side effects.
Details
Clinical research shows that administration of magnesium hydroxide with glyburide increases glyburide absorption, increases maximal insulin response by 35-fold, and increases the risk of hypoglycemia, when compared with glyburide alone (20307). A similar interaction occurs between magnesium hydroxide and glipizide (20308). The mechanism of this effect appears to be related to the elevation of gastrointestinal pH by magnesium-based antacids, increasing solubility and enhancing absorption of sulfonylureas (22364).
|
Magnesium decreases absorption of tetracyclines.
Details
Magnesium can form insoluble complexes with tetracyclines in the gut and decrease their absorption and antibacterial activity (12586). Advise patients to take these drugs 1 hour before or 2 hours after magnesium supplements.
|
Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion (95628). Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15,23207). However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels (95628).
|
Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion (95628). Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15,23207). However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels (95628).
|
Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Resveratrol. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Magnesium is generally well tolerated.
Some clinical research shows no differences in adverse effects between placebo and magnesium groups.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Diarrhea, gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, and vomiting.
Intravenously: Bradycardia, dizziness, flushing sensation, hypotension, and localized pain and irritation. In pregnancy, may cause blurry vision, dizziness, lethargy, nausea, nystagmus, and perception of warmth.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
All ROAs: With toxic doses, loss of reflexes and respiratory depression can occur. High doses in pregnancy can increase risk of neonatal mortality and neurological defects.
Cardiovascular
...Intravenously, magnesium can cause bradycardia, tachycardia, and hypotension (13356,60795,60838,60872,60960,60973,60982,61001,61031).
Magnesium sulfate may cause rapid heartbeat when administered antenatally (60915).
In one case report, a 99-year-old male who took oral magnesium oxide 3000 mg daily for chronic constipation was hospitalized with hypermagnesemia, hypotension, bradycardia, heart failure, cardiomegaly, second-degree sinoatrial block, and complete bundle branch block. The patient recovered after discontinuing the magnesium oxide (108966).
Dermatologic ...Intravenously, magnesium may cause flushing, sweating, and problems at the injection site (including burning pain) (60960,60982,111696). In a case study, two patients who received intravenous magnesium sulfate for suppression of preterm labor developed a rapid and sudden onset of an urticarial eruption (a skin eruption of itching welts). The eruption cleared when magnesium sulfate was discontinued (61045). Orally, magnesium oxide may cause allergic skin rash, but this is rare. In one case report, a patient developed a rash after taking 600 mg magnesium oxide (Maglax) (98291).
Gastrointestinal
...Orally, magnesium can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea (1194,4891,10661,10663,18111,60951,61016,98290).
In rare cases, taking magnesium orally might cause a bezoar, an indigestible mass of material which gets lodged in the gastrointestinal tract. In a case report, a 75-year-old female with advanced rectal cancer taking magnesium 1500 mg daily presented with nausea and anorexia from magnesium oxide bezoars in her stomach (99314). Magnesium can cause nausea, vomiting, or dry mouth when administered intravenously or by nebulization (60818,60960,60982,104400). Antenatal magnesium sulfate may also cause nausea and vomiting (60915). Two case reports suggest that giving magnesium 50 grams orally for bowel preparation for colonoscopy in patients with colorectal cancer may lead to intestinal perforation and possibly death (90006).
Delayed meconium passage and obstruction have been reported rarely in neonates after intravenous magnesium sulfate was given to the mother during pregnancy (60818). In a retrospective study of 200 neonates born prematurely before 32 weeks of gestation, administration of prenatal IV magnesium sulfate, as a 4-gram loading dose and then 1-2 grams hourly, was not associated with the rate of meconium bowel obstruction when compared with neonates whose mothers had not received magnesium sulfate (108728).
Genitourinary ...Intravenously, magnesium sulfate may cause renal toxicity or acute urinary retention, although these events are rare (60818,61012). A case of slowed cervical dilation at delivery has been reported for a patient administered intravenous magnesium sulfate for eclampsia (12592). Intravenous magnesium might also cause solute diuresis. In a case report, a pregnant patient experienced polyuria and diuresis after having received intravenous magnesium sulfate in Ringer's lactate solution for preterm uterine contractions (98284).
Hematologic ...Intravenously, magnesium may cause increased blood loss at delivery when administered for eclampsia or pre-eclampsia (12592). However, research on the effect of intravenous magnesium on postpartum hemorrhage is mixed. Some research shows that it does not affect risk of postpartum hemorrhage (60982), while other research shows that intrapartum magnesium administration is associated with increased odds of postpartum hemorrhage, increased odds of uterine atony (a condition that increases the risk for postpartum hemorrhage) and increased need for red blood cell transfusions (97489).
Musculoskeletal
...Intravenously, magnesium may cause decreased skeletal muscle tone, muscle weakness, or hypocalcemic tetany (60818,60960,60973).
Although magnesium is important for normal bone structure and maintenance (272), there is concern that very high doses of magnesium may be detrimental. In a case series of 9 patients receiving long-term tocolysis for 11-97 days, resulting in cumulative magnesium sulfate doses of 168-3756 grams, a lower bone mass was noted in 4 cases receiving doses above 1000 grams. There was one case of pregnancy- and lactation-associated osteoporosis and one fracture (108731). The validity and clinical significance of this data is unclear.
Neurologic/CNS
...Intravenously, magnesium may cause slurred speech, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, or headaches (60818,60960).
With toxic doses, loss of reflexes, neurological defects, drowsiness, confusion, and coma can occur (8095,12589,12590).
A case report describes cerebral cortical and subcortical edema consistent with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), eclampsia, somnolence, seizures, absent deep tendon reflexes, hard to control hypertension, acute renal failure and hypermagnesemia (serum level 11.5 mg/dL), after treatment with intravenous magnesium sulfate for preeclampsia in a 24-year-old primigravida at 39 weeks gestation with a previously uncomplicated pregnancy. The symptoms resolved after 4 days of symptomatic treatment in an intensive care unit, and emergency cesarian delivery of a healthy infant (112785).
Ocular/Otic ...Cases of visual impairment or nystagmus have been reported following magnesium supplementation, but these events are rare (18111,60818).
Psychiatric ...A case of delirium due to hypermagnesemia has been reported for a patient receiving intravenous magnesium sulfate for pre-eclampsia (60780).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Intravenously, magnesium may cause respiratory depression and tachypnea when used in toxic doses (12589,61028,61180).
Other ...Hypothermia from magnesium used as a tocolytic has been reported (60818).
General
...Orally or intravenously, potassium is generally well-tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
All ROAs: High potassium levels can cause arrhythmia, heart block, hypotension, and mental confusion.
Cardiovascular ...Orally or intravenously, high potassium levels can cause hypotension, cardiac arrhythmias, heart block, or cardiac arrest (15,16,3385,95011,95626,95630).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally or intravenously, high doses of potassium can cause, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and flatulence (95010,95011). Bleeding duodenal ulcers have also been associated with ingestion of slow-release potassium tablets (69625,69672).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally or intravenously, high potassium levels can cause paresthesia, generalized weakness, flaccid paralysis, listlessness, vertigo, or mental confusion (15,16,3385,95011).
