Does the Job!!

It works the same as the Known name brand starting with a "M"....To each it's own opinion but it does have same effect. Why pay higher price if they work equally.

Never Again – Absolutely Miserable Experience

I bought the Target Up&Up version of MiraLAX because I thought, “same active ingredient, lower price – why not?” Well, I seriously regret it. I followed the instructions exactly – measured the right amount, mixed it in water, it dissolved perfectly, no taste. Honestly, I thought this was going to be smooth sailing. But within a few hours, my stomach started cramping in ways I can’t even describe. I wasn’t just uncomfortable; I was doubled over. It felt like my insides were twisting. Then the bathroom chaos began. Not just one or two trips – I lost count after seven. It was relentless, wave after wave, and I couldn’t leave the bathroom for half the night. My stomach kept gurgling loudly, the bloating was insane, and every trip felt urgent and explosive I’ve used name-brand MiraLAX before without anything like this happening, so I don’t know if it’s the Target version or just a bad reaction this time, but I will never risk it again. If you have a sensitive stomach or any hesitation, skip this. I’d rather deal with constipation than go through another night like that.

Quick fix

Great for under 6 bucks. Works in two days. Helped me when I couldn’t go. Doesn’t have a taste. Had it with water when I had a meal. I’m back to normal now and didn’t use the whole thing lol

My Dr. Recommended

Oddly enough, my Dr. recommended this for my FREQUENT trips to the bathroom. I was doubtful, but have been taking this every day for three years now and it has given me the power to control when I head to the bathroom. (Once a day vs 5-6 times) *Note: a little curious about the request for a photo on this one. Not sure ANYONE wants to see a photo of that 😂

Identical to Miralax

This is identical to Miralax. It contains polyethylene glycol 3350 17g and has no inactive ingredients; this is exactly the same as Miralax. Any reviews claiming this product is worse than Miralax just had a particularly bad stomach/digestive day. I take this daily per my doctor.
