Re: Taking Miralax and the side affects

[Guest guest]

My mom took it to prep for a colonoscopy. She only took it for one day...actually I think maybe it was only one dose. And she had so much rectal burning and stinging that she said the experience of taking Miralax was worse, for her, than the actual colonoscopy...

Actually, I did try it...not on purpose cuz I didn't want to mess up my GI tract, but I did take some...when mixing my son's, I got about a 1/4 of capful in my own water (being lazy and not careful)...about 5 minutes later I had to go!!! Bad. And, it wasn't comfortable. Burning, cramping, yuck! All day I felt miserable...tired but nervous energy at the same time. From that day on, I've felt like the World's Worst Mom because of what I'm doing to my son...but at this point, I feel like there are no other choices. Well, until meeting all of you!

Can you amagine what they feel like taking 9 times the dose? This is the problem, these doctors are prescribing this at 17 grams without looking up the pediatric dose..........at 35 lbs. the dose is about 3 grams..........whether you're 2 or 92 they give 17 grams, cause that's what it says on the bottle, but this is the adult dose???? then when they don't go, they up it untill they do go? According to the fda reports, there are medical professionals that have reported cases of it putting the bowel to sleep per say................if it's suppose to go through fast so it's not absorbed this could be a BIG problem. Thank you for sharing, I think there are a lot of people who give this to their children, look on here to try to find justification for their already gut feelings that maybe they made a mistake. When they hear all the gut renching testimonies they become defensive because it HURTS to hold the responsibility that we as parents just gave something to

our child that could have harmed them, when they originally set out to help their child.

I'm trying to locate it. Mayo clinic has one on their website but I'm having trouble locating it.........I don't understand the 5-1 part? the dose is something like 2kg per ml times body weight per hour? something like that. I have it on paper and in an old e-mail I'll try to re-post it..............this is where we came up with them not giving the proper dose.

I haven't taken it because it wouldn't give me an accurate account of

how it affects my daughter. I am not constipated badly, therefore it

would give me uncomfortable diarreah. But I can tell you that my

daughter's BMs, which were once extremely painful, are now totally

painless for her. I used to have to use Fleet on her. Now THAT stuff

burns! The Miralax (generic) doesn't do that to her. And she has no

side effects.

This doesn't mean that some kids don't get side effects from Miralax.

We are all very individual. And all drugs have side effects for some

people. But in our case, all the other things we've tried have

failed, whereas Miralax has worked beautifully.

for those who complain their child has been perscribed too large a

dosage...why not give them less?

One of my daughter's difficulties (and at least one of the reasons

why she is constipated without Miralax) is that she won't drink

enough fluids. Therefore, getting the full perscribed dose down her

is impossible. (My doc actually told me to give her half the actual

perscription dose...but she actually gets about 1/4 of the perscribed

dose.) My daughter is no longer consipated, so this small dosage is

working. And she has no side effects.

It is not supposed to give you diarrhea. I believe, it is supposed

to act like fiber; it absorbs water and, supposedly, does not go

through the intestinal membrane, rather straight through you, with

the water it absorbed, softening and bulking stools. Eating too much

fiber can give you gas and large BMs but not diarrhea. Fiber

(soluble and insoluble) and sorbital are two substance in food that

promote healthy bowel movements. Your bowels also need good bacteria

like acidophilus and the one in Culturelle.

I was told to take it for 90 days to regulate my bowel movements. (I

am constipated once or twice a month but have a bladder problem - not

incontinence). I didn't want to take it but thought it is only for

90 days, so I took it. The day after the third dose I was

constipated! Didn't go all day and was miserable. I read the

ingredient again – poly something and a NUMBER!?! What did I put in

my mouth!?! It isn't food – it doesn't belong in my body.

My nephew has a stretched rectum and my sister has been giving this

stuff to him for over a year and it makes me want to cry. Six months

ago or so they started giving him riddlen (how ever you spell it).

He was extremely thin and twitchy the last time I saw him and my mom,

who sees him monthly, says he is a very nervous kid.

By all means use it to solve the immediacy of a dangerous condition

in children and adults. Use it as it is labeled – for how ever many

days (NOT MONTHS) . But don't be fooled into thinking it is safe.

How long has it been on the market? Where are the long term

studies? It reminds me of silicone breast implants – it leaks into

your body poisoning your systems and your brain (and it DOES pass

through the intestines).

My sister says her son eats fiber and that prunes didn't work for

him. Since I was told to take it, and elected not to, I have

discovered that, although I thought I ate fiber, I don't eat nearly

as much as one is supposed to, and that is 25 to 35 grams!

I had a fruit and flax smoothie this AM (I started making them daily

since deciding NOT to take mira-poison. It had in it: 1 banana

(2.8g), 1 cup frozen Blueberries (3.9g), ½ c Stonyfield organic

vanilla yogurt (1.5g), 4 ozs Guava nectar (1g), ¼ c FiPro Flax (6g).

I drank two cups (my three-year-old son had one cup) and that (two

servings of fruit and all that flax) only equated to about 10 grams

of fiber for me – or – about 1/3rd of what I should eat daily. If I

have a sandwich on whole grain fiber bread (8g in two slices) I will

have reached 18 grams for the day which means 17 grams to go!!!! Add

a bowl of high fiber cereal (6 to 8g) and I still would have to eat

another 9 to 11 grams at dinner – which means a lot of beans!

I am finding that it is not easy to get the fiber I need to avoid

taking mira-poison but I will find a way and I suggest that anyone

taking this crap try, try, try again. If your kid eats a small apple

he only gets about 2.5 to 3g of fiber – if he is 8 years old he needs

about 13g.

Water – don't get me started – my urologist said to drink half your

body weight in ounces – so for me (160 pounds) I need to drink 80

ounces! I am peeing water now and feel wasteful flushing a toilet

with no yellow in it. It is not easy and sipping doesn't work for

me - I guzzle big glasses.

Do your best with small kids – they will follow your example and if

you refuse to feed them anything but high fiber food they will

eventually eat it. My three-years-old son ate cold asparagus at 8

o'clock at night because he wanted a cookie and he didn't eat his

asparagus at dinner. You might not be able to get them to drink more

but you can get them to eat what ever YOU want them to. My son talks

about having drank enough water cuz his pee pee is not dark - he is

three and thankfully, has never had a bowel problem.

Fiber might make you gassy – give it time – take probiotics for the

gut. Get OFF the poison - get your kids off the poison. Although

obvious I will say it - transition slowly - a little less mira-crap,

a little more fiber - write out a plan - a menu - chart the amount of

fiber in your meals - put is on a calendar and shoot for no mira-

poison at the end of a three month period.

where are you getting sorbitol? It can cause diarhea in some. One

box of fruit pops had a warning on the box.

We did use it, from a homeopathic provider. The information from the bottle states:

RegeneRx (I messed up the name in my earlier post...this is the correct name)

A FuturePlex product distributed by Apex Energetics, Santa Ana, CA

There is no website listed...but I got it from the provider and we did use it with my son. I learned the hard way that you MUST mix it with some kind of oil, olive oil is preferred (more pure). If it's not mixed, it's too potent and will burn. We saw a marked difference in him after about 2 applications.

I would be interested in researching this product!! Any thing that can help our kids!!! I also wanted to mention that we have actually seen positive results in our son's vac toxicity/viral issue's(sensory being the most obvious) and our other children also is "garlic". Garlic is a very affective natural chelator!! Since I started adding it to our families diets, my older kids have not had to use any antibiotics since. My husband always every year ended up on antibiotics. When he had an illness and no help with antibiotics working at all! He couldnt handle the illness and gave in to garlic treatment and is a true convert now!! Anyways, it is supposed to be good for metal/toxin chelating!!(if you dont mind the smell) Jennie wrote: We did use it, from a homeopathic provider.

Another great infection fighter other than garlic is oregano oil. Tried that one yet? Tastes awful, but man! it works very, very well. One or two drops in a shot-glass size water, hold it in your mouth for a few seconds and swallow. Yuck! But, within minutes, you'll feel better.

A friend of mine is currently using the RegenRx with her new daughter. The daughter was adopted and had been vaccinated completely. She's using this to detox her and is seeing slow, but good, results.
