The drug CLORU-VAC contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Magnesium chloride
UNII 02F3473H9O - MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE

|
2
Magnesium carbonate
UNII 0E53J927NA - MAGNESIUM CARBONATE
|
|
Magnesium carbonate, MgCO3 (archaic name magnesia alba), is an inorganic salt. The most common magnesium carbonate forms are the anhydrous salt called magnesite (MgCO3) and the di, tri, and pentahydrates known as barringtonite (MgCO3·2 H2O), nesquehonite (MgCO3·3 H2O), and lansfordite (MgCO3·5 H2O), respectively. The primary use of magnesium carbonate is the production of magnesium oxide by calcining. |

3
Zinc
UNII SOI2LOH54Z - ZINC OXIDE
|
|
Zinc blocks the intestinal absorption of copper from the diet and the reabsorption of endogenously secreted copper. Zinc induces the production of metallothionein in the enterocyte, a protein that binds copper thereby preventing its transfer into the blood. The bound copper is then eliminated in the stool following desquamation of the intestinal cells. |
