BACKGROUND Some studies showed that magnesium has anticonvulsive effect in some animal models. Despite of the availability of well-studied anticonvulsant drugs, this evaluation was not carried on new kind of magnesium supplement, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (nMgO). According to the association

A 2 5/12-year-old Chinese boy was investigated for refractory seizures and psychomotor regression. His birth history was unremarkable. Generalized seizures occurred at 2 weeks of age with hypocalcemia. They recurred at 7 months of age and have become aggravated since. During hospitalization, in

We report a case of fatal hypermagnesemia resulting from the unsupervised use of high doses of magnesium oxide administered as part of a regimen of megavitamin and megamineral therapy to a child with mental retardation, spastic quadriplegia, and seizures. The treatment regimen was given at the

A female Thai baby born to non-consanguineous parents, presented with primary hypomagnesemia at 10 weeks of age, and suffered recurrent convulsions that responded to magnesium supplementation. She was found to have hypomagnesemia (Mg 0.35-1.02 mEq/L) and a low urinary magnesium excretion of less
