Magnesium aspartate is a magnesium salt of aspartic acid, used as a dietary supplement to prevent and treat magnesium deficiency. It is sometimes used in the management of conditions like muscle cramps and for nutritional supplementation. It is available over-the-counter in many countries and is not classified as a controlled medication. It is approved and commonly used today as an oral magnesium supplement.
