Catbean - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
I got this product because I love targets brand of products and was having issues with the bathroom since being pregnant, I haven’t had nausea through my pregnancy so I thought this would be a great option since it’s supposed to be flavorless but the taste of it was really off and I wasn’t able to drink it unfortunately. The price is great and I’m sure it may do the job but for someone who is sensitive to taste this may not be the best choice

Not sure this is legal. There does not appear to have directions for use eg. How much and how often. Has FDA approved this product? Can Target legally sell this?

I needed after a recent surgery to get things moving. And this product worked really well, took about 12 hrs to work. I thought I'd be running to the bathroom in 10 minutes. No diarrhea caused. Did exactly what I needed it to.

It's very effective as a colonoscopy prep, I wish though that it didn't taste the way it did. I am very sensitive to taste so if you're not you'll probably be fine. As someone with Autism it was difficult to swallow all I needed, not impossible but difficult.

With this product receiving almost five stars reviews, I was really expecting it to be effective. The package states to compare to Miralax. I really expected it to be pretty much the same. Unfortunately, it's like I haven't taken anything AND my poop smells really really bad with this stuff. I'm extremely disappointed! If I could give zero stars, I would.
