Miralax is a laxative and again, laxatives (long-term) create dependency and after a few years (months???), your bowels will no longer function on their own.  That's fine if you are 80 but I'm only 44 and a laxative dependency is NOT an option for me.   Katie   > Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 19:24:28 -0500
