| |
| | |
| '''CNS Depressants''' — When barbiturates, narcotics or other hypnotics (or systemic anesthetics), or other CNS depressants are to be given in conjunction with magnesium, their dosage should be adjusted with caution because of additive CNS depressant effects of magnesium. CNS depression and peripheral transmission defects produced by magnesium may be antagonized by calcium.
| |
| | |
| '''Neuromuscular Blocking Agents '''— Excessive neuromuscular block has occurred in patients receiving parenteral magnesium sulfate and a neuromuscular blocking agent; these drugs should be administered concomitantly with caution.
| |
| | |
| '''Cardiac Glycosides '''— Magnesium sulfate should be administered with extreme caution in digitalized patients, because serious changes in cardiac conduction which can result in heart block may occur if administration of calcium is required to treat magnesium toxicity.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = MAGNESIUM SULFATE (MAGNESIUM SULFATE HEPTAHYDRATE) INJECTION, SOLUTION [PHYSICIANS TOTAL CARE, INC.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=70f46528-7a1c-48e7-9f0f-7e920e708d63 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = }}</ref>
