For Constipation "As I aged, my bowel motions became increasingly difficult. The physicians I consulted recommended more water, dietary fiber, exercise, etc., but none had a lasting effect. I tried synthetic glucose derivatives-lots and lots of gas and cramps! For me, dietary fiber produced too much uncontrolled gas. The osmotic agents produced too much water loss, and I was warned about potential electrolyte imbalance. Finally, I tried PEG3350, and Nirvana! It's convenient, tasteless, dissolves in all liquids, stable, and for me, no apparent side effects. I discovered if I titrate the dose, I control the nature of my bowel motion. As an OTC product, it seems to be one of those rare preparations that won't put me in the hospital."

For Bowel Preparation "It worked fine, but do not use toilet paper, use the ultra-soft cleansing wipes. Also, some baby powder towards the end is good, and even some zinc oxide for diaper rash."

For Constipation "Have been using Miralax for years. Pharmacy first substituted a generic, then another generic, and finally last week another generic that doesn't dissolve, has a terrible odor, and is unpalatable. Contacted Rugby, the name of the company on the label; they verified my experience. I asked where the ingredient is sourced, was told they obtain it from Gavis Pharmaceuticals, and could not provide any additional information. I am really upset that I cannot obtain ingredient source information, don't have a clue who manufactured it, and find it very disconcerting that it is repackaged and distributed so many times. I fear the worst when I cannot get solid information."
