Familial Hypomagnesemia
- Familial Primary Hypomagnesemia
A group of inherited magnesium-wasting disorders caused by variants in genes such as CLDN16, CLDN19, TRPM6, CNNM2 and FXYD2; the CLDN16 and CLDN19 forms can progress to chronic kidney disease.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Magnesium supplementation can control symptoms, and some forms need kidney function and eye monitoring.
