New here and trying to find someplace to answer a question on Magnesium. I am using a cream for my neuropathy called Mama bear it contains Magnesium Cloride. I asked my doctor if i could use it. He said yes but find out how much Magnesium is in it. I have asked the company but haven;t gotten an answer. I just started it yesterday. My Magnesium count is good per the doctor. This cream is absorbed into the skin. Will it cause me to get too much magnesium in my system? I also just started on Farxiga as I am ckd3 with a GRF of 35. Since i can't get an answer from the company can anyone help...I need to try it a week to see if it will help. Used it 2x yesterday and i did see a little relief.

If it is important to the doctor and his rec's, you must tell the doctor you can't find the info and ask that he do that. He is the expert. You are in no shape to be the detective searching for answers, if it works and seems to help your symptoms, just take it till Dr says not to, and tell him you plan to do that. Another thing, nurses often know this type info better than doctors, and for sure a pharmacist will; I'd ask the pharmacist today !!! Good luck.

@bb76 are you taking magnesium supplements? I take magnesium orally for my heart- 300-600mg/day. I don't use Epsom salts!
