Recommended Posts

Seems as if there much information on gapapentin withdrawal and magnesium citrate 0n the net but little to none on the actual dosage of magnesium citrate. Yes I know that dosage varies from person to person

likely  because of diarrhea  problems. All I need is reasonable dosage for the average person, >>>Thank you

Hi Frank, and welcome to SA,

 

I'm at work at the moment but thought I would give you some links for information on this site which you might find helpful.  This is your Intro topic where you can ask questions and journal your progress.

 

  1. Please put your Withdrawal History in Signature
  2. Before you begin tapering what you need to know
  3. Why taper by 10% of my dosage?
  4. Brain Remodelling
  5. Video:  Healing From Antidepressants - Patterns of Recovery
  6. What should I expect from my doctor about withdrawal symptoms?
  7. How do you talk to a doctor about tapering and withdrawal?
  8. Tips for tapering off Neurontin (gabapentin)

Most containers of magnesium citrate, whether capsules or pills, will have a recommended amount on the label.

 

The RDA (recommended daily amount) by the USA National Institutes of Health information is here.

This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
