I am sure that the doctors who treated me in these two cases would disagree but I would say that magnesium sulfate sure didn't help keep me from progressing into full blown labor after being admitted for suspected preterm labor and told it was just uteran irritability. I would be admitted, hooked up to an IV, and given magnesium sulfate. With in a few hours of treatment and great misery I would deliver the baby they were trying to keep in for a few more weeks. Again I had this treatment twice and it seemed to me like it made any contractions I may have been having worse.

no magnesium citrate could probably kill you

Magnesium citrate is generally used as a laxative. It's prescribed by doctors prior to certain procedures, like a colonoscopy. I'm not sure who said it could kill you. This is not true.
