How it works
Blocks NMDA glutamate receptors in spinal cord dorsal horn, reducing wind-up and central sensitisation that amplifies neuropathic pain from the compressed sciatic nerve.
Evidence for magnesium in sciatica specifically is limited. Most relevant for chronic sciatica with significant central sensitisation component. Should complement, not replace, primary physical treatment.
