I am 60yrs. old and I have been experiencing leg cramps for close to 15 yrs. Back when it was still legal I was prescribed Quinine. Now I m seeing that it s possible that I could not be getting enough Magnesium. Is there a safe supplement and is there a possibility of getting to much, possible side effects? Thank you Bill

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
You can take magnesium supplementation along with calcium and phosphorus by intake of Suspension Calcimax P for leg cramps you are experiencing.
Also, it would be advisable to take Vitamin E and Selenium containing supplements, which would provide antioxidant activity and help to recover well.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
Wish you good health.
