The best.
The best product you can get for constipation. I'd start off with 30 mL. It'll most likely do the trick. For me it works about 90 minutes in. The still notice effects for 6 hours after that. I disagree with taking it at bedtime. Don't take it at bedtime. Take it during the day when you know you'll be home all day. Drink lots of water too. 5 star. I love how it's ready to consume out the bottle. And comes with measurement cap so you can buy it at the store, open it up, drink it, and you're done. Just have a bottle of water with you. It's great that it is stored at room temperature, as opposed to the refrigerator. So you can leave it in your car or on the table anywhere you want. Life saver.

When you need it, it’s good to have
When you need it, this is the product! The taste is much better than the original. It’s effective with signs of constipation without cramping. Cost us comparable to other products. Bottle is easy to open and comes with a medicine cup to dispense.

Simply smooth release!
If you're struggling through constipation, pleaaase get the stuff! Its a smooth, planless solution. I choose this over other laxatives because it does not give me tummy cramps, or make my tummy sick. Simply smooth release!

Terrible
Alright somewhere along the lines of forming this formula of Milk Of Mag you messed up. And by messed up I me terribly messed up. Please try and reformulate this may have been the worse experience I’ve ever had. I gag every time I think of this product. This isn’t even an exaggeration but straight truth. One the texture, why does it have to be so thick? Two the flavoring is rancid. Three I took this hours ago and still want to throw up. I’m disgusted.

Like it
Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia is a sugar-free saline laxative that provides gentle relief from occasional constipation, often working within 30 minutes. Infused with a fresh mint flavor, it contains naturally sourced magnesium hydroxide, which helps promote bowel movements without harsh stimulants or cramps.

Put the sugar back.
Why did you reduce the sugar by 40%? It tasted great, but now sorta yucky! You should go back to the original ! Then, just do a sugar free. The stuff works great, but tastes yucky, now.

Milk of Mag. Product Has Been Diluted ! 🤬
Diluted product ! I’ve taken this product for a couple decades. Recently it’s been diluted. You can tell it’s diluted because it’s so thin and it takes four times the amount to make it work! This is a shady business practice, and whoever decided that this ought to be fired from Beyer. A product that people have depended on for so long in this country has turned it back on us.. I will be cautious to avoid anything made by Bayer. 👎🏿

Awful Side Effects.
Horrible taste and texture, and made me sick to my stomach with the additional fun of diarrhea. And that was at small dose of 30ml.

Crazy label guidelines
I bought this product today. MOM works great. BUT: The label says to store at room temperature but doesn't say anything about after opening. I just read online that milk of magnesia must be refrigerated after opening to preserve freshness. It also says that it will help pass a bowel movement within 30 minutes to 6 hours. Yet it recommends taking it at bedtime so you can poop in bed. These guidelines are crazy. So should it be refrigerated or not? I think better yes than be sorry later. Should I chance pooping in bed? I don't think so. I'll take it earlier.

Relief at last - yay!
I was seriously constipated after taking a heavy-duty antibiotic. I called my insurance company's advice nurse, the urgent care people, and my doctor suggested. I bought Milk of Magnesia after I saw it mentioned in the Mayo Clinic book on Digestive Care. I took it at 10:00 last night, and voila!

Your dosing instructions aren't clear you need to say how many tablets. No one knows how many tablets your ml is

Slack Filled with water and greed.
Growing up Mama would give me Milk of Magnesia (MOM) from time to time. It was thick, and had a minty taste and you had to shake it up because it settled. Today, its water that tastes like fish, which is not the original flavor at all. Honestly I think eating a thick bacon sandwich and having a large cup of black coffee, with a ice cold Topo Chico works better for constipation. Its almost a Roto-Rooter for your Tooter.
