Magnesium Reference Range
These are the typical adult reference ranges used by major US labs. Your report will include the specific range used by the lab that processed your sample.
| Population | Range |
|---|---|
| age 18+ | 1.70 – 2.20 mg/dL |
Reference ranges are educational. Always interpret your result with the specific range printed on your lab report and discuss anything outside the range with a clinician.
What your Magnesium result may mean
Usually reflects supplement excess or kidney impairment.
Common in alcohol use, diuretic use, GI losses, or poor diet. Can cause muscle cramps and arrhythmias.
Educational only — not a diagnosis. Many factors can influence a single result. Discuss anything that concerns you with a healthcare provider.
