How MiraLAX works

Water is vital to your body for healthy living, and to help your digestive system stay regular. Constipation may occur when stool moves slowly through the colon, which could allow too much water to be removed. This can make the stool hard, dry, and difficult to pass.

MiraLAX contains Polyethylene Glycol 3350, which is a completely different way to treat constipation. It works by gently replenishing the water to your digestive system, which helps naturally cause a bowel movement. This water both increases the frequency of bowel movements and softens the stool, making it easier to pass. Nothing works better than MiraLAX laxative to relieve constipation and soften stool with no harsh side effects.

• No sudden urgency
• No cramping
• No bloating
• No gas

The Preferred Choice

For constipation or irregularity, doctors and pharmacists prefer MiraLAX more than any other prescription drug or OTC laxative. Doctors recommend MiraLAX more than fiber supplements, laxative tablets, stool softeners, or mineral oils to relieve constipation.

MiraLAX is not only the #1 recommended laxative by doctors, pharmacists, and gastroenterologists, but also is the #1 over-the-counter brand used in hospitals. It is clinically proven to relieve constipation and soften stool, with no harsh side effects.

* Use as directed for occasional constipation

Selecting the Laxative That's Right for You.

There's a range of laxatives available over the counter – each works differently to relieve constipation.

• Osmotic laxatives gently draw water back to the digestive tract, replacing lost water, enabling a normal, complete bowel movement. Through this process, MiraLAX, an osmotic laxative, relieves constipation and softens stool, with no harsh side effects.
• Bulk-forming (fiber) laxatives add psyllium (insoluble) fiber to the stool. These can be used to supplement the fiber in your diet. However, they can sometimes ferment and cause gas.
• Stimulant laxatives activate the walls of the intestine, causing the muscles to contract and clear the bowel. They work quickly, but can sometimes cause cramps.
• Lubricants, such as mineral oil, coat the walls of the intestine so that stool can pass through more easily. They can sometimes interfere with vitamin and nutrient absorption.
• Saline laxatives work by pulling water into the intestine. These laxatives can remove electrolytes.
