Hi all,
Our hemodialysis unit in Thunder Bay & satellites have been adding mag chloride spikes to some of our low mag patients’ baths for some time now. Sadly our supplier Chief Medical is suddenly unable to supply them any more. Wondering if there are other sites out there using mag spikes and where they source them from/alternative options. We’re hoping to avoid IV mag if possible.
Thanks!
Matthew
Hi Matthew,
At Grand River Hospital Kitchener I believe we use: magnesium powder vials made by Baxter.
Hope this is useful,

Appreciate the advice Jen, we’ve reached out to Baxter.
Cheers,
Matthew
