Q: How many grams. I need 238 grams for colonoscopy prep?
submitted by Katieb79 - 3 years ago
A: This IS what the GI doctor ordered for the colonoscopy prep.
submitted bydont know - 3 years agoA: There are 17g of Polyethylene Glycole 3350 (osmotic laxative) in each dose. As a reminder, MiraLAX is not indicated for use in preparation for colonoscopy. We recommend following your doctor’s directions when preparing for a colonoscopy.
submitted byMiraLAX Team - 3 years agoBrand expertA: This bottle. Just an FYI, I needed to split this into two batches. I used my kitchen scale to weigh it. I don’t know why the Miralax “brand expert” is saying it’s not intended for colonoscopy prep; this is the product my gastroenterologist recommended.
submitted byElle - 7 months agoA: 8.3oz is equal to 238 grams. Says so on label.

Q: Can a toddler use it for constipation?
submitted by Unique Gifts - 8 years ago
A: I would not recommend it (we did, and unfortunately, there were some side effects we weren't aware of). I would do a Google search, and you can see all the studies being done on the issues that parents have seen with giving it to a toddler/child. We ended up getting Culturelle Kids Regularity and it has helped a lot.

Very good. It works naturally with your body's water to hydrate, soften, and ease the passage of stool, without stimulating the nerves in the colon like stimulant laxatives. I recommend it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Gentle, Effective Relief I’ve been using MiraLAX occasionally for the past few months, and it’s become my go-to solution for occasional constipation. What I appreciate most is how gentle and effective it is — there’s no cramping or sudden urgency like with some other laxatives. It works gradually, usually within 1-3 days, and feels very natural.
Worked well!

Honestly this worked well for me. I had previously used a stimulant lax and it unfortunately caused great discomfort, cramping, and didn't work. However, I used this and it started working rather quickly and I don't have any side effects personally.

My son struggles with constipation so we were advised to take MiraLAX daily. I’ve tried the off-brands but it never compares! Nothing gives my son the results needed like MiraLAX does

Got some issues as a medication side effect despite already eating very healthy and drinking enough. I take one a day mixed into soda because I don't like the taste much on its own. It definitely works if done regularly, though for severe issues something...

this is a powder laxative solution that helps relieve constipation, softens stool, and it works right away for me! I love that I can mix this in a warm cup of tea or coffee first thing in the morning and it does not have a nasty taste to it or you can buy it in the orange flavor and add it to your bottle of water.
Best!

I absolutely love miralax because it’s makes the whole process gentle on the body. It’s doctor recommended and tastes like nothing! I’m always recommending it to people who are experiencing constipation, I don’t trust anything else.
