Question
Posted on: March 6 2013Is it possible to prepare capsules with potassium and magnesium citrate?
We obtain a hygroscopic mixture which will cause the powder to show clot formation. After the 2 active components to be processed separately in capsules, they showed a clot formation over time with magnesium.
Answer
I see two options to solve this problem. The first possibility, which may not solve the problem completely, is the addition of 1% magnesium stearate to the magnesium citrate capsules. The second possibility is to switch to another magnesian compound. Perhaps magnesium orotate is a good alternative. Or both possibilities allow é é n capsule to be prepared with both components, the practice will have to point out.
