Magnesium glycinate is generally well tolerated. Some people may experience mild digestive discomfort, especially when first starting supplementation or taking larger amounts than recommended.

People with significant kidney disease or those taking medications that interact with magnesium should speak with their healthcare provider before using magnesium supplements. Magnesium can also interfere with the absorption of certain medications if taken at the same time.
