Daily Miralax for IBS

2018-04-15 06:09:14
I have not been diagnosed but IBS and chrons disease runs in my family and I have been having serious problems for a few years now. A few very painful blockages. So I started taking Miralax, have been taking it for 7 days, but the bottle says not to take it for more than 7 days... but i have not felt as good as I do when I’m taking Miralax. Can I continue to take it daily?

Not a good idea to continue Miralax for a prolonged period. Please consult a gastroenterologist.
