the 2 pills twice a day is about 400mg elemental magnesium (if you are absorbing it all)

the topical will give you about 100-200mg per day which is a good way to overcome deficiency.

if you are worried that the 2 tablets twice a day is causing issues with your BM, reduce the oral intake and increase the topical application

If this helps to relieve anyone I am using lots of topical mag oil now....6 sprays in my hand on each leg and 2-4 sprays in my hand on my arms. I feel this equates to about 270mg topically.

Plus I take 2 tablets which equal 200mg in the morning.

THEN in the evening I take another 2 tablets and if I feel I need some lotion on my feet before bed I do that too....so this lady isn't afraid of getting to much magnesium right now....when the body is still producing issues it will need all the support you can give it (I am learning this as I go along).

Do you think you can you get enough mag from the oil/lotion alone if you use it enough thru the day?

Yes you can, depending on the product and how many sprays per 100mg of elemental magnesium etc

for my product (an australian one) if i do 32 sprays a day I can get about 600mg elemental magnesium.
I spray tops of legs and stomach each time i go to the toilet.
arms, neck, stomach through the day
legs, neck, stomach morning and night.
