User Comments about Miralax
19 Jan 2017 Miralax saved me. I have never had a non-prescription or prescription drug that has helped me like Miralax. I sound like I am getting paid but I am not. If anyone is having severe constipation issues try this and you will find out what I mean.

20 Jan 2012 helps to quickly relive occasional constipation quite well, however even though they say it wont give you gas it does.

10 Oct 2010 I like this medication because it helps with my constipation and it does not have any negative side effects. Sometimes it does not work as effectively as I would like, or as quick.

18 Aug 2010 I personally don't like the way it works to control constipation.

02 Jul 2010 I was prescribed this medicine because I was having issues with constipation. I didn't like the taste that much but it helped with the problem. I saw good results after 1 glass and I really enjoyed that.
