Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

Magnesium chloride is well absorbed transdermally and there are a lot of studies that confirm this findings. Transdermally absorbed Magnesium has a good effect on local tissue (including skin, muscle, nerves and arteries). These is why transdermal Magnesium is efficient in reducing arterial calcification.

However there aren't enough data to confirm if transdermal absorbed Magnesium Chloride may correct hypomagnesemia (low Magnesium in blood levels).

Hope this was of help!

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

Let me explain you again in order to avoid miss understanding.

1. As I said above, transdermal Magnesium Chloride is well absorbed through the skin and has a curative effects on skin, muscles, arteries and nerves. So magnesium will have a positive effects locally on reducing arterial calcification.

2. Although transdermal Magnesium Chloride is well absorbed, there's not enough evidence to confirm the fact that transdermal would correct severe hypomagnesemia. Moderate to severe Hypomagnesemia is a common complication in renal failure patient and there's no evidence to recommend transdermal route of administration to treat these patients. Actual recommendation is that transdermal route is efficient only to treat mild hypomagnesemia.

3. My conclusion is that transdermal Magnesium chloride is efficient for reducing periferic arterial calcification and to treat mild hypomagnesemia. It shouldn't be treated for moderate to severe hypomagnesemia conditions. in this case oral and intravenous route are more efficient.

4. My opinion are based on guidelines and medical textbooks and I can't provide an online link for them.

Hope this was of help!
Wish you health!
