Abstract
The treatment of uraemic pruritus is difficult, as reflected by the variety of treatment that has been tried. Hypermagnesaemia is common in chronic renal failure and has been shown to corrolate with itch. We investigated the effect on itch of lowering the serum magnesium concentration in a group of patients suffering from uraemic pruritus.
