What does it do?

Magnesium chloride hexahydrate is an inorganic salt that contains magnesium and chloride ions, used in peritoneal dialysis fluid to regulate electrolyte concentration in the body. This component maintains appropriate magnesium levels in body fluids during dialysis, preventing electrolyte imbalance.

Magnesium chloride hexahydrate included in peritoneal dialysis fluid supplies magnesium ions to the body, regulating serum magnesium levels. This helps maintain the body's electrolyte balance and stabilizes the magnesium levels necessary for cell function and nerve conduction.
