Question:
WHAT IS A GOOD OVER THE COUNTER LAXATIVE TO USE?

ANYTHING OVER THE COUNTER THAT IS GOOD TO USE BESIDES MILK OF MAGNESIA, IT GIVES ME THAT GAG REFLEX AND IT IS KIND OF HARD FOR ME TO KEEP DOWN. SOME OF THE OTHERS IS REALLY EXPENSIVE.    — latreshar (posted on May 11, 2009)

Miralax! This stuff is gentle and recommended by most doctors. You just mix it in a drink...like your morning coffee...and you won't even know it's there. You cannot taste it and it doesn't change the drink in the least. You'd never know it was in there if you hadn't put it there yourself. I think it is about 6 bucks at Wal-Mart...but trust me...it is sooo worth it! Everything else is so nasty and harsh.

I agree, Miralax. It has worked very well for me also.

I can't say enough good things about Miralax. It cost a bit more but it's totally worth it. You go girl!

Miralax!! Hands down. You will have to adjust your daily intake that works for you. I had to use it twice a day, as opposed to once daily as noted on the label. No belly cramping and is very gentle. My bariatric Doc & gastroenterologist both swear by it for their patients.

No question, MiraLax. I was miserable, and the doc put me on some other stuff nothing helped then his partner said why don't you try MiraLax. I am now thankfully regular as clockwork! Best stuff ever.
