I take 144mg of magnesium threonate at night. My friend also swears by tonic water with quinine for leg cramps. Hydration is 1st step! Make sure you get enough water. When I’m dehydrated I get cramps.

Thanks for the info! I do stay hydrated. Since I ditched coffee I'm drinking a lot more water and herbal tea. And recently I read that there may be a connection between caffeine and muscle cramps, so I'm wondering if stopping the coffee may be having an affect on frequency of leg cramps, as I haven't had any in a while. I'll ask about magnesium threonate at my next doctor visit.
