Worked for us
I waited a couple days to write my review. It has been 4 days since my 2 year old started this. I started off with one and she likes them. After the 6th hour nothing happened so I gave her one more. It took her a little longer than 24hrs for it too work. The next morning again I gave her another tablet and plenty of water and she finally pooped. So total 3 for my two year old to finally go potty . Every child is different. When she did go it didn’t hurt and it was soft. After that I stopped giving her any. The next day she pooped 3 times but all after meals and didn’t hurt her or give her a rash. Also never gave her diarrhea,which i liked because usually her dr would prescribe her the adult version and it was always diarrhea. So yes i would say it worked just give it more time and make sure too drink lots of liquids. I will say it did make her really gassy. Again every child is different , I hope this helps.

Works well!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My niece is 7 and used these. She said they tasted good and wasn't a gritty consistency. It helped her use tge bathroom easily. It also wasn't a long wait after taking then that she was able to get relief.

We were about 6 hours away from having to bring our 3yo to the hospital from his chronic constipation issues.. everything else we tried no luck at all which included suppositories miralax and senna etc everything they did at our previous hospital admissions.. decided to give these a try before taking him in and long behold an hour in and he finally went WITHOUT crying in pain!! HIGHLY recommend these for any kiddo struggling!!

This works!!!!
These chewables have been a lifesaver. Our pediatrician recommended them! They worked gently and reliably without upsetting anyone’s stomach. The watermelon flavor made it easy for the kids to take, which is a relief when they’re already uncomfortable. The dose is simple to adjust for different ages, and the tablets dissolve well. It’s a trustworthy product that does exactly what it promises. I feel good always keeping it on hand for when my kids need fast, gentle relief!

Great product when all stopped up!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pedilax Chewable Laxative is a great find for parents! The taste is mild and kid-friendly, and the packaging is compact and easy to use on the go. It offers good value for the price with quality ingredients that are gentle on little tummies. Most importantly, it’s effective—works smoothly without cramps or discomfort. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Easy to take and ideal to have on hand for travel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These chews from Pedia-Lax are ideal to have on hand if you have a child that ever has constipation issues. I like to have them to travel with - just in case! The Pedia-Lax Laxative Chewable tablets taste like watermelon and are easy for my son to take. He doesn’t complain about the taste which I consider to be a huge win for any medication! They work within the timeframe noted on the bottle as well.

Might be too strong for my toddler
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To be honest, this upset my son stomach. He didn’t complain about the taste and I had no complaints about the ingredients. But this product made him sick. It might be of value to someone but we will have to pass.

Tasty Chewable Bathroom Relief
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pedia-Lax watermelon chewable is a great way to assist in keeping your child regular and healthy. The soft watermelon taste makes it easier for children to take without a bad medicine taste.

Worked ok but she disliked the texture
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pedia-lax chewable tablets for occasional Constipation in children worked somewhat. She is 11 and said they tasted gross and it took a couple doses for it to take effect. However I felt better using this then any other brand since I trust this company with children’s products. I got this product free from @influenster but I located at most major retailers that sell children’s medicine.

Five Stars! Finally, a Gentle Laxative That Works.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pedia-Lax Chewable Tablets have been a total game-changer for my son, who is on the autism spectrum. Finding a gentle, effective solution for his occasional constipation has always been a struggle. Other brands we tried were too harsh, often resulting in bad diarrhea and stomach discomfort, which is incredibly difficult for him. These watermelon-flavored chewables, which use the gentle saline laxative ingredient magnesium hydroxide, are different. They are incredibly kind to his tummy, providing quick and gentle relief without any painful side effects or cramping. The taste is a bonus, making it an easy task to administer. For parents with autistic children who have sensitive digestive systems, I highly recommend Pedia-Lax!

Kid friendly gentle relief from constipation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with Pedia-Lax Laxative Chewable Tablets (Watermelon, 30 count). They’re gentle on the stomach, work within a few hours (sometimes overnight), and don’t cause cramping like some other laxatives do. The chewable tablets make it so much easier with no measuring, no messy liquids, and my child actually likes the watermelon flavor, which is a big win! I also appreciate that it’s for kids ages 2–11, so I feel comfortable giving it knowing the dosage is age appropriate and safe when used as directed. It’s not something we would use every day, but it’s definitely something I'd like to keep on hand. For parents looking for a trusted, kid-friendly option to help with gentle relief, I highly recommend it.

Goodbye constipation, hello happy tummy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tbh this Pedia-Lax chewable is such a lil hero 😂 My kid used to cry when hearing “medicine time” but this one? he said “mom it taste like candy watermelon!!” 🍉 The taste is actually good, not too sweet. I checked the ingredients, seems pretty simple n safe for kids (no scary stuff lol). Gave him 1 tab, and about an hour later… boom 💩—super effective! Sometimes takes longer but still works fine. The packing is small, easy to open, perfect for travel. And honestly, good value for money, coz u don’t need much for it to work. Just not for daily use tho. Mom-tested, kid-approved

Toddler approved
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is great for when your children are backed up. My toddler loves the flavor and I have to tell him he can only have 1 so he doesn't eat them all. Grateful for these chewable candies!

This works quickly
My five year old took two tablets after not going to the bathroom for over a week. He had to go in 15 minutes. As a stressed out mom, I’m so glad it worked.
