Do magnesium supplements help with asthma?

Asthma can frequently worsen and range from mild to severe attacks. The use of magnesium sulfate is one of many treatment options available during acute asthma attacks. Magnesium sulfate administered in the vein, or with a nebulizer combined with other asthma therapies, has been shown to be effective for the treatment of acute asthma attacks, particularly in children with severe symptoms. However, magnesium is not as effective for mild-to-moderate attacks.
