Magnesium Citrate Supplement for Hospitalized Patients

Participants within the intervention group were provided with 300 mg of oral magnesium supplement in the form of magnesium citrate capsules daily, and subjects in the control group received a placebo containing starch. Magnesium citrate powder was obtained from Behan Sar Pharmaceutical Company, and capsules containing magnesium and placebo were prepared by an expert at the Faculty of Pharmacy of Jundishapur University and provided to the study. The placebo capsules contained starch and were similar in appearance to magnesium supplements. The duration of intervention in patients was from the time of admission to the time of discharge from the hospital. In case of changes in the diet and medication protocol of the patients, the changes were reviewed by the research team, and in case of interference with the study objectives, the patient was excluded from the study.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
