Various drugs can contribute to Magnesium deficiency, many of these drugs we find ourselves on, due to the nature of our condition:-

Painkillers, that many sufferers with Chronic Pain are taking for extensive periods of time
PPI’s for gastric disorders, when taken for long periods (for GERD or sometimes given with Nsaids)
Diuretics
Anti-depressants which some sufferers might have been put on
Certain types of anti-biotics also deplete magnesium levels

So consider, these could have put you into a ‘hypomagnesemia state’, over time. For further info on Magnesium Deficiency, please read:-
