    Published in Neurol Res

    Key Findings

    Magnesium sulfate plus nimodipine reduced cerebral vasospasm, delayed cerebral ischaemia and secondary cerebral infarction versus nimodipine alone.

    Conclusions

    Magnesium may limit secondary infarction after subarachnoid haemorrhage.

    Limitations

    Single-centre; rebleeding rates unchanged.

    Supplements Studied
