Glipizide (Glucotrol®) and Glyburide (Micronase, Glynase, Diabeta).

Taking magnesium and and either Glipizide or Glyburide together may further lower blood sugar leading to blurred vision, tremor (shaking), hunger, sweating, headache, skipped heart beats, confusion, nervousness and extreme tiredness. Magnesium ( also commonly found in antacids), may increase the absorption of glipizide and glyburide, medications used to control blood sugar levels. Ultimately, this may prove to allow for reduction in the dosage of those medications.   http://www.umm.edu/altmed/ConsSupplements/Interactions/Magnesiumcs....

if you choose to supplement with magnesium products of any kind, be mindful of the above, and check blood sugars often!!
