| magnesium trisilicate | 2MgO-3SiO2-nH2O;a compound of magnesium oxide and silicon dioxide with varying proportions of water; occurs in nature as meerschaum, pararepiolite, and repiolite; a gastric antacid. (05 Mar 2000) |

| potassium magnesium aspartate | <chemical> An intra-extracellular electrolyte exchange agent with a variety of effects. Beneficial in cardiac insufficiency, potentiates the effect of cardiac glycosides by reducing their toxicity, has hypocholesteraemic effects and potentiates the effects of calcium in disturbed calcium metabolism. Synonym: panangin; tromcardin. Chemical name: DL-Aspartic acid, monopotassium salt, mixt. With potassium hydrogen (T-4)-bis(DL-aspartato(2-)-N,O1)magnesate(2-) (12 Dec 1998) |
| deficiency, magnesium | Can occur due to inadequate intake or impaired intestinal absorption of magnesium. Low magnesium (hypomagnesaemia) is often associated with low calcium (hypocalcaemia) and potassium (hypokalaemia) levels. Deficiency of magnesium causes increased irritability of the nervous system with tetany (spasms of the hands and feet, muscular twitching and cramps, spasm of the larynx, etc.). According to the National Academy of Sciences, the Recommended Dietary Allowances of magnesium are 420milligrams per day for men and 320 milligrams per day for women. The upperlimit of magnesium as supplements is 350 milligrams daily, in addition to the magnesium from food and water. (12 Dec 1998) |
| effervescent magnesium citrate | Magnesium carbonate, citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and sugar, moistened with alcohol, passed through a sieve, and dried to a coarse granular powder; used as a laxative. (05 Mar 2000) |
| effervescent magnesium sulfate | Effervescent Epsom salt; magnesium sulfate, sodium bicarbonate, tartaric acid, and citric acid, moistened, passed through a sieve, and dried to a coarse granular powder; a purgative. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tribasic magnesium phosphate | Mg3(PO4)2-5H2O;tertiary magnesium phosphate, it is used as an antacid but it does not produce systemic alkalization; 1 g is equivalent in neutralizing power to about 0.46 g of sodium bicarbonate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aluminum carbonate | Basic, Al2O3CO2;an aluminum hydroxide-carbonate complex consisting of white lumps, insoluble in water; aqueous suspensions bind phosphorus in the intestine and lower serum inorganic phosphorus resulting in an increase in reabsorption of phosphorus by renal tubules and reduction of urinary excretion of phosphorus; it reduces formation of phosphatic urinary calculi and gastric acidity.

| bismuth carbonate | (BiO)2CO3;used for the same purposes as bismuth subnitrate, but has lower toxicity. Synonym: bismuth carbonate, bismuth oxycarbonate, bismuthyl carbonate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bismuthyl carbonate | (BiO)2CO3;used for the same purposes as bismuth subnitrate, but has lower toxicity. Synonym: bismuth carbonate, bismuth oxycarbonate, bismuthyl carbonate. (05 Mar 2000) |

| carbonate dehydratase | <enzyme> A zinc-containing enzyme of erythrocytes with molecular weight of 30 kD. It is among the most active of known enzymes and catalyses the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide, which is significant in the transport of co2 from the tissues to the lungs. The enzyme is inhibited by acetazolamide. Chemical name: Carbonate hydro-lyase Registry number: EC 4.2.1.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbonate dehydratase inhibitor | An agent, usually chemically related to the sulfonamides, that inhibits the activity of carbonate dehydratase, producing a general decrease in the formation of H2CO3 in the tissues. See: acetazolamide, dichlorphenamide. Synonym: carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carbonate hydro-lyase | carbonic anhydrase |
| sodium acid carbonate | <chemical> Carbonic acid monosodium salt (CHNaO3). A white, crystalline powder that is used as an electrolyte replenisher and systemic alkaliser. It is applied topically in solution to wash the nose, mouth, or vagina, and as a cleansing enema. Pharmacologic action: Acid neutralization. Uses: Preexisting metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, tricyclic or phenobarbital overdose. Dose in mEq: 0.3 * (base deficit) * (wt in kg). Potential complications: Metabolic alkalosis, hypercarbia, hyperosmolar state. Note: Since HCO3- does not cross cell membranes and CO2 does, the administration of bicarbonate may actually make tissues more acidotic. Chemical name: Carbonic acid monosodium salt. (12 Mar 2000) |
