About Mak Tablet

Mak Tablet is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It reduces pregnancy-induced leg cramps and also eases menstrual cramps. It prevents and controls seizures (fits) in preeclampsia and eclampsia, serious complications in pregnancy that occur due to high blood pressure. Mak Tablet is also used to treat acute hypomagnesaemia, characterized by abnormally low magnesium levels in the blood.

Mak Tablet contains Magnesium bisglycinate. It is a mineral supplement and an electrolyte. It helps lower prostaglandins (inflammation-causing substances) and reduces menstrual cramps. Magnesium deficiency is related to the muscle relaxation process; hence its supplementation regulates muscular contractions and avoids cramping during pregnancy. It is also involved in bone formation. It is used to relieve constipation with its laxative properties. It further prevents and controls seizures by blocking neuromuscular transmission (the transfer of nerve impulses to the heart).

Disease/Condition Glossary

Nutritional deficiency: A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food.

Pregnancy-induced leg cramps: Cramps are a sudden and sharp pain due to the painful, involuntary contraction of a muscle in the calf or feet.
