@jc76 thank you for your reply !! Yes he did mention magnesium and I’ve been nervous to add to my metoprolol. Have you had any blood pressure issues ? Mine is fairly low at about 99/67. They pretty much dismiss my high blood pressure.

My doctors; heart failure, EP, PCP, said 400 mg of magnesium was a safe level to take for my PVC issues.

I am on so many medications: Entresto, Carvedilol, Mexiletine, as well as others for other reasons. My normal blood pressure with these medications (which reduced it dramatically) is low normally 90/60. However when my weight goes up like now it goes up to 100/70.

My heart failure doctor becomes concerned when I lose weight as my BP will fall to 90/60. At that point he says if goes lower he will separate the times I take my heart medication but no mention of magnesium. He is concerned with dizziness when standing.

I take the magnesium for PVCs. Ask your doctors about taking magnesium as they are the only ones who have your full medical history and can advise if something will affect you personally.
