can deplete magnesium over time, while potassium-sparing diuretics may cause magnesium retention. These magnesium interactions vary by type.
Your doctor may monitor levels or recommend supplementation accordingly.
Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs)
Long-term use of PPIs (like omeprazole) for acid reflux can reduce magnesium absorption, sometimes leading to low levels.
If you take PPIs daily, periodic magnesium checks may be worthwhile.
Thyroid Hormone Replacement (Levothyroxine)
Magnesium supplements can bind to levothyroxine in the digestive tract, potentially reducing absorption.
Taking magnesium at least 4 hours apart from thyroid medication helps avoid this
