    I take Magnesium Oxide at 400mg once a day. Prescribed by my cardiologist

    Try Spiriva. I don’t even know I have asthma anymore because it works so well….

    I myself am going to buy magnesium for palpitations, headaches and asthma.
    Dr. Weil recommends magnesium citrate.
    “It’s easy to get magnesium from your diet - it is plentiful in whole grains, leafy green vegetables (spinach is a great source) as well as almonds, cashews and other nuts, avocados, beans, soybeans, halibut. You can also take supplemental magnesium. I recommend taking half the amount of magnesium as calcium. Look for magnesium citrate, chelate, or glycinate. Avoid magnesium oxide, which can be irritating. High doses will cause a laxative effect or diarrhea.”

    One thing, I know it can make you drowsy and cause loose stools, so be aware of that.
