One gram of 10% calcium gluconate is 1000 mg/10 mL; 9.3% of that is elemental calcium. Thus, there are 93 mg of elemental calcium in 10 mL of 10% calcium gluconate. For tetany or seizures, 1–3 mL can be given via slow intravenous push over 5–10 min with no more than 2 mg ...
Calcium chloride contains triple the amount of elemental calcium on a weight to weight basis over calcium gluconate. (10% calcium chloride: 272mg elemental calcium or 13.6 mEq/1g ampule; 10% calcium gluconate: 90mg elemental calcium or 4.5 mEq/1g ampule). However, CaCl ideally should be admin...
But even in a healthy body - without any of the above ramifications - the effect of magnesium on calcium (and that of calcium on magnesium) is further affected by the type of minerals used (carbonate, gluconate, citrate, etc.), and their resulting effect on stomach acid levels, which also...

Mag Gluconate The worst and most insoluble and unabsorbable forms of magnesium to take as a supplement are Magnesium Hydroxide and Magnesium Oxide -- these are only ever used as laxatives. Never buy this form as a supplement -- useless. ...
andcalcium silicate; and thickeners such as calciumgluconateandcalcium alginate. The percentage composition of calcium in these compounds ranges considerably; for example, calcium gluconate is 9% calcium, calcium carbonate is 40% calcium, and calcium oxide is 71% calcium by weight. Solubility also ...
(d) calcium infusion: 0.4 mL/kg/hour of calcium chloride or 1.2 mL/kg/hour of calcium gluconate; (e) glucagon infusion: 2–10 mg/hour (50–100 μg/kg/h); and (f) dextrose infusion: 5 mL/kg/hour of D10W or 2 mL/kg/hour of D25W (solutions that are >10% ...
For supraventricularreentry tachycardias, a bolus of 5 to 10 mg (0.1 to 0.15 mg/kg) can be administered over 2 minutes and repeated 15 to 20 minutes later if needed. After successful administration, the dose may be stopped or continued at 0.005 mg/kg/min for approximately 30 to 60...
Additionally, in a previous study [28], we have shown that coffee can be considered an appropriate iron and zinc fortification vehicle, since the salts, ferrous fumarate, and zinc gluconate added to soluble coffee brews presented reasonable bioavailability, 58% and 78% for iron and zinc, ...
