Magnesium Sulfate for Seizure
Adult dosing has a median of 4000 mg across 25 published protocols, with the middle half between 4000 and 4000.
Doses far off from what other protocols give are likely misreads, so they are left out until checked. How that works.

Values in mg. One value per source (that source's median), so a document listing a medication five times still gets one vote.
