3. Allergic Reactions: A Rare but Serious Concern
While uncommon, some people may experience an allergic reaction to magnesium oxide. Symptoms of an allergic reaction can include itching, hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, and even anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially life-threatening reaction.
If you suspect that you are experiencing an allergic reaction to magnesium oxide, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention. Discontinue use of the supplement and consult your healthcare provider for further advice.
To reduce the risk of an allergic reaction, make sure you’re using a high-quality magnesium oxide supplement from a reputable manufacturer. Additionally, if you have a known allergy to any of the ingredients in the supplement, it’s essential to avoid using magnesium oxide altogether. (3)
