Drug & supplement interaction

Magnesium + Lanadelumab (Shp643)

Lanadelumab (Shp643) brand name: Takhzyro.

No Known Interaction

Medically reviewed by Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 13, 2026

The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Magnesium and Lanadelumab (Shp643) in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Magnesium and Lanadelumab (Shp643)

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Lanadelumab (Shp643) and Magnesium in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Magnesium and Lanadelumab (Shp643) May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do. One of them is worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

Bleeding or bruising Worth acting on Additional detail
Magnesium
“Intravenously, magnesium may cause increased blood loss at delivery when administered for eclampsia or pre-eclampsia. However, research on the effect of intravenous magnesium on postpartum hemorrhage is mixed.”

Special populations

Magnesium in Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy And Lactation Likely Safe

When used orally and appropriately. Magnesium is safe for those pregnant and breast-feeding when used in doses below the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily.

Pregnancy And Lactation Possibly Safe

When prescription magnesium sulfate is given intramuscularly and intravenously prior to delivery for up to 5 days. However, due to potential adverse effects associated with intravenous and intramuscular magnesium, use during pregnancy is limited to patients with specific conditions such as severe pre-eclampsia or eclampsia. There is some evidence that intravenous magnesium can increase fetal mortality and adversely affect neurological and skeletal development. However, a more recent analysis of clinical research shows that increased risk of fetal mortality seems to occur only in the studies where antenatal magnesium is used for tocolysis and not for fetal neuroprotection or pre-eclampsia/eclampsia. Furthermore, antenatal magnesium does not seem to be associated with increased risk of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants. There is also concern that magnesium increases the risk of maternal adverse events. A meta-analysis of clinical research shows that magnesium sulfate might increase the risk of maternal adverse events, especially in Hispanic mothers compared to other racial and ethnic groups.

Pregnancy And Lactation Possibly Unsafe

When used orally in excessive doses. Tell patients to avoid exceeding the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 350 mg daily. Taking magnesium orally in higher doses can cause diarrhea. ...when prescription magnesium sulfate is given intramuscularly and intravenously prior to delivery for longer than 5 days. Maternal exposure to magnesium for longer than 5-7 days is associated with an increase in neonatal bone abnormalities such as osteopenia and fractures. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that magnesium injection not be given for longer than 5-7 days.

About Magnesium

What is Magnesium?

Preventing or treating magnesium deficiency
Constipation
Muscle cramps
Sleep support
Anxiety and stress
Migraine prevention

Magnesium is an essential mineral your body needs for muscles, nerves, blood pressure, and many other functions, and supplements are useful for preventing or correcting deficiency. Some other uses, like easing constipation or preventing migraines, have reasonable support, while uses for sleep and anxiety are less proven. It is generally safe for most healthy people at recommended amounts, but talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you have kidney problems.

Mineral (not a plant part) · Tablets, capsules, powders, liquids, gummies, and topical Epsom salts; common forms include magnesium citrate, glycinate, oxide, chloride, malate, and aspartate

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Magnesium is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Magnesium record says about it on its own.

Magnesium: dosing

There is no single "best" dose for everyone, and the right amount depends on your age, sex, health, and the reason you are taking it. Different forms contain different amounts of actual (elemental) magnesium, which can be confusing.Do not assume more is better. There is an upper limit for magnesium taken as a supplement, and going above it raises the risk of side effects. If you are using magnesium for a specific condition like constipation or migraine, ask a health professional for guidance.

About Lanadelumab-flyo injection

What Is Lanadelumab-flyo injection Used For?

Brand name: Takhzyro

Takhzyro (lanadelumab-flyo) is used to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) — a condition that causes sudden, painful episodes of swelling in areas like the skin, abdomen, hands, feet, and throat. It is approved for adults and children 2 years of age and older.

Takhzyro is a preventive (prophylactic) therapy. It is not used to treat an attack that is already happening — it works in the background to reduce how often attacks occur.
