After taking MiraLax for more than a year, I am having some trouble with food coming back up on occasion. Also, a little pain occurring in the breastbone area! Thank you.

Hey phillip,
Sounds like you have some reflux issues. Whether this is related to the Miralax or not, hard to say. I would discuss with the doctor when you have the opportunity. In the meantime, do not lie down after eating for at least a couple hours and if this is occuring at night, prop your head up on some pillows so to get gravity to help counter the problem. There are medicines which are prescribed for this problem, so having the doctor address is suggested.
