Question
Posted on: November 9 2015Syrup with magnesium carbonate
A physician specialist in internal Medicine prescribes the following magistal preparation:
R/Citric acid 31g
Magnesium Subcarb Lev 18g
Aqua 202g
Sirupus simplex Conservans 47g
We have no information about the posology, nor the indication (phosphate binder?).
Mg Subcarbonate Lev. Cannot be ordered (anymore). Can this be replaced by the heavy variant? Or can magnesium citrate (anhydr) be used here, and if so, what quantity?
