magnesium pidolate

Actimag is an oral solution containing magnesium pidolate, a highly bioavailable organic salt of magnesium. It is indicated for the prevention and treatment of magnesium deficiency (hypomagnesemia) in adults and adolescents. Magnesium is an essential mineral that serves as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, playing a critical role in energy metabolism, protein synthesis, muscle contraction, and neurochemical transmission. At the cellular level, magnesium acts as a physiological calcium antagonist, modulating voltage-gated calcium channels and blocking N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors to regulate neuronal excitability. Actimag is developed and marketed by Faes Farma.
