Um no. No one wants their kid taking daily miralax. That isn’t how it should be used

LOL my pediatrician disagrees with you, so I’m going with that.

There is no reason to use Miralax when there are safer choices out there. Please read this article, the FDA has been dragging their feet, but are still trying to work with CHOP (Children’s Hospital of Philly) to do a study on Miralax and adverse events.

Mira lax is not fiber. It is polyethylene glycol. Take fiber if you need fiber, not chemical laxatives.





That link doesn't work can you cut and paste or tell us the gist of it please?

Because they are sick of seeing you and don’t know what else to tell you

Really, it isn’t for extended daily use unless you want to permanently never poop normally

I’m going to trust my doctor over DCUM but thanks. I will agree that it’s for treating diagnosed constipation issues and that OP’s kid may not need it, though.

As someone who has used fiber supplements for 15 years I suggest benefiber. I left Metamucil and citrucel in the dust because benefiber is much better disguised.

Imagine believing that doctors know anything about nutrition. Bless you, Sweetie.

The Olly fiber gummies taste pretty good and are a consistent size/ texture with their other gummy vitamins.
