Treatment of torsade de pointe Treatment of acute hypokalemia with hypomagnesemia Magnesium supplementation for electrolyte imbalance Magnesium supplementation in parenteral nutrition Prevention and treatment of preeclampsia (toxemias of pregnancy) |
| Usage/Dosage |
○ Torsade de pointe treatment - IV bolus injection of 8mmol magnesium (1.6g magnesium chloride). Then, continuous IV drip of 0.012 to 0.08mmol magnesium per minute (2.5 to 16.5mg magnesium chloride). ○ Treatment of acute hypokalemia accompanied by hypomagnesemia - Daily 24-hour potassium supplementation and an IV drip of 24-32mmol magnesium (5-6.5g magnesium chloride). (For potassium supplementation, solution must be prepared in a different container.) Once magnesium levels return to normal, treatment is stopped. ○ Magnesium supplementation for electrolyte imbalance and parenteral nutrition - IV drip of 6-8mmol magnesium (1.2-1.6g magnesium chloride) over 24 hours. - The usual dosage for children is 0.1 to 0.3mmol magnesium per kg (20 to 60mg magnesium chloride) over 24 hours. ○ Prevention and treatment of preeclampsia (preeclampsia) - Slow intravenous injection To treat or prevent preeclampsia, administer an IV drip of 16mmol magnesium (3.25g magnesium chloride) over 20-30 minutes. If preeclampsia continues, 16mmol magnesium (3.25g magnesium chloride) is administered by IV drip again, making sure that the maximum accumulated amount does not exceed 32mmol of magnesium (6.5g magnesium chloride) during the first hour of treatment. For 24 hours after the last treatment, 8-12mmol of magnesium (1.5-2.0g magnesium chloride) per hour is continuously administered by IV drip. ○ To avoid life-threatening hypermagnesemia in the average adult, IV drips should never exceed 120mg/min (0.6mmol/min) |
