Magnesium sulfate is mainly used

A, building materials

Magnesium sulfate can react with light burning powder to form magnesium sulphoxide cement after dissolving in water.Magnesium sulphoxide cement has good fire resistance, heat preservation, durability and environmental protection. It is used in many fields such as fire door core board, exterior wall heat preservation board, silicon modified heat preservation board and fire prevention board.

Second, the medicine

(1) magnesium sulfate can inhibit the central nervous system, relax skeletal muscles, and has the functions of sedation, anti-convulsion and reduction of intracranial pressure.It is often used for the treatment of convulsion, eclampsia, uremia, tetanus and hypertensive encephalopathy.Deep intramuscular injection of 10% magnesium sulfate (10ml) or slow infusion of 5% glucose diluted into a solution of 2% ~ 2.5% were used.However, it should be noted that direct intravenous or high dose intramuscular injection of magnesium sulfate is very dangerous. In general, 25% magnesium sulfate can be used at most 15 ml at a time.The patient's breathing and blood pressure should be observed when using the product. Sluggish knee reflexes are an important sign of adequate magnesium ions.

(2) magnesium plays an extremely important role in the metabolism of sugars and proteins.Magnesium salt should be added to children with indigestion and vitamin D during growth.

(3) magnesium has many physiological functions similar to potassium.Because the clinical manifestation of magnesium deficiency is similar to that of potassium deficiency, magnesium deficiency is often overlooked.The possibility of magnesium deficiency should be considered first when the symptoms are still not improved after potassium supplementation, so that hypomagnesemia can be corrected in time.Accordingly, the patient of long-term infusion, at the same time of filling potassium, should notice to fill magnesium.One gram of magnesium sulfate is added to the daily infusion to prevent hypomagnesemia.

(4) when using digitalis drugs for patients with cardiac insufficiency, magnesium salt can be appropriately supplemented to prevent the toxicity of digitalis caused by low magnesium.Magnesium salts are often effective in the treatment of tachycardia.

(5) oral magnesium sulfate is poorly absorbed in the intestinal tract, so it has no use as described above.However, oral magnesium sulfate has a good cathartic function, so it is also called Epsom salt.After the oral magnesium sulfate solution reaches the intestinal cavity, it has certain osmotic pressure, so that the intestinal water is not absorbed by the intestinal wall.There is a lot of water in the intestine, which can mechanically stimulate the peristalsis of the intestine and defecate.Therefore, magnesium sulfate can be used to treat constipation and abnormal intestinal fermentation.Together with insect repellent, can make intestinal insect easy to expel.Dissolve 5 ~ 20 grams of magnesium sulfate in 100 ~ 400 ml warm water each time, and take it orally once in the morning.Concentration is not easy too high, 5% is better, or defecation delay.

(6) magnesium sulfate can stimulate the duodenal mucosa, reflexively cause the relaxation of the sphincter of the common bile duct and the contraction of the gallbladder, thereby promoting the empting of the gallbladder and promoting the effect of gallbladder.Can be used to treat cholelithiasis cholecystitis, every time 2 ~ 5 grams, 3 times a day, before meals or between meals oral.Dilution of 50% magnesium sulfate was 33% (high concentration), 5ml Tid.

(7) magnesium sulfate can be used for gastrointestinal angiography

(8) reduce inflammation and swelling. This product has the effect of reducing inflammation and removing swelling by applying 50% solution externally to the affected area.

External application of magnesium sulfate powder can reduce swelling and is used to treat swelling of limbs after trauma and to help improve rough skin.

Magnesium sulfate soluble in water, do not absorb take orally, the magnesium ion and sulfate ions in aqueous solution are not easy to absorbed by the intestinal wall, make the intestinal higher osmotic pressure, fluid moisture to move, lumen lumen volume increases, the intestinal wall expansion, thus stimulating bowel wall of afferent nerve endings, reflex sexual ground to cause intestinal peristalsis increases with the catharsis, its role in the intestine, so fast and strong.It is used as cathartic and duodenal drainage agent.

Intravenous and muscular injections of magnesium sulfate are mainly used for anticonvulsants, which can cause vascular dilatation and blood pressure drop. Due to the central inhibitory effect of magnesium sulfate, skeletal muscle relaxation and hypotensive effect, it is mainly used for relieving convulsions such as eclampsia and tetanus, and also for the treatment of hypertensive crisis.Also used as an antidote to barium salt. 

Third, industrial

Used in leather making, explosive, fertilizer, paper making, porcelain, printing dye, lead-acid battery and other industries.Magnesium sulfate and other potassium, calcium, amino acid salts, silicate and other minerals, can be used as a bath salt. 

Four, agriculture

Fertilizers: in agriculture and horticulture, magnesium sulfate is used to improve magnesium-deficient soil (magnesium is a basic element of a chlorophyll molecule), most commonly used in potted plants, or in crops containing magnesium, such as potatoes, roses, tomatoes, peppers, and marijuana.The advantage of applying magnesium sulfate over other magnesium sulfate soil improvers (such as dolomitic lime) is its high solubility.

Feed: feed grade magnesium sulfate as a supplement of magnesium in feed processing.Magnesium is an indispensable factor involved in the process of bone making and muscle contraction in livestock and poultry. It is an activator of various enzymes in livestock and poultry, and plays an extremely important role in the metabolism and nerve function in livestock and poultry.If the body of livestock and poultry is deficient in magnesium, it will lead to substance metabolism and neurological dysfunction, supply disorders, affecting the growth and development of livestock and poultry, and even lead to death.
