does it work for cramps while running a marathon

I don't know because I've never ran in a marathon. However, I have extreme cramps in my thighs where I yell out because the pain is excrutiating and they work for me.

Calcium helps the muscles contract and Magnesium helps them relax. I have heard people say that the mixture does help treat leg cramps. I don't use it for cramps, just general muscle and bone health.

It all depends. For me, alot of my pain was from running with a heavy pack in the military. Do I have compression issues. That is the main thing you will benefit from. I used it regularly for 3 months and now I can just use it once a week. Seriously amazing

As others said, it is a roll on which provides relief (note: it's best to also stretch the cramp out - especially for any reoccurrence of cramps you may get which can disturb sleep.

Cuprum Metallicum and Magnesa Sulfate. I play tennis and tried this roll on when I started cramping. Meh. I agree with one of the other responses that Hyland's Leg Cramps works better. I cramped another time during a tennis match. Instead of Cramp 911, I took the Hyland Leg Cramps pills, I was able to finish my match. With Cramp 911 - I could not finish my tennis match and forfeited due to leg cramping.

I haven't but my chiropractor says that insufficient water can cause cramps in the legs and feet. Since adding a little more than 1 1/2 my body weight converted into ounces. I no longer have cramps in my toes and feet. I use the Magnesium Lotion to help me sleep. pus going to bed earlier, I love it!

For you personally I cannot answer that, but I will answer with knowledge that when my daughter has monthly cramps she takes up to 4 and the pain subsides.

I haven't tried this brand on yet, but most compression stockings will relieve swollen feet/ankles (temporarily). I don't know about cramping. You may not need pantyhose; there are other options that stop at the knee and/or thigh.

No. It is to counteract the muscle cramps many people get when taking a statin drug (for cholesterol). For my wife and me, CoQ10 works fine at preventing cramping. CoQ10 has other benefits, but I'm not sure what they are.

No, not at all. Both arm and cramp are very disfunctuonal. They broke instantaneously. It was total waste of the money. It was a lesson for me that buying cheap stuff makes you lose more money.

Yes, but for me, not as well as it does for calf & foot cramps. When I get thigh cramps, they are very hard and I need something stronger than Hyland's, like Crampex.

I would say yes. It will help you from being as sore. You can take during or after your cycle.

This band is Velcro so Yes most defiantly. I am a woman, I found out about this from a young woman who is prone to running a lot of miles. This is very comfortable on the upper arm or just above the elbow. Great Product!

I don't know about thigh cramps; I've only ever had front and back of legs (below knees). They are very painful but this product does help me with those, especially after a long day on my feet.

I would have your doctor check your eletrolytes, as that can cause leg cramping, especially low potassium. You might try eating bananas till you see your doc, as they are high in potassium. I believe potatoes are a good source, too. you can Google potassium foods and probably get a list to pop up from somewhere. Calcium and Magnesium work together with Vitamin D3 to strengthen bones.
