    You’re Not Alone; Constipation Is Very Common

    It’s not the easiest thing to talk about, but millions of people just like you sometimes experience uncomfortable digestive issues like occasional constipation. Constipation can be caused by lifestyle factors such as stress, diet, travel, medications and lack of exercise. It can be defined by fewer than normal bowel movements, difficulty passing stool and abdominal bloating.

    There Are Many Solutions

    Exercising, eating fiber-rich food and drinking plenty of water are some of the smart ways to keep your system running smoothly. When you’re still feeling constipated, it’s important to understand your laxative choices.

    Clues to Constipation

    While there is no formal clinical definition of occasional constipation, it’s often described as a departure from a person's normal bowel movements. Swipe to learn more about constipation, which can include things like:1

    1T. McGraw. World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics.

    No bowel movements in the past 24 hours

    Lumpy or hard bowel movements at least 25% of the time

    Straining during at least 25% of bowel movements or feeling like you couldn’t quite finish going to the bathroom at least 25% of the time

    Fewer than three bowel movements in a week

    Loose stools are rarely present without the use of laxatives

    Tell me how MiraLAX® is different.

    MiraLAX® Is Gentle on Your Body

    Not all laxatives work the same way. MiraLAX® provides effective relief from occasional constipation by working naturally with the water in your body to hydrate, soften and ease — unblocking your system. This helps to produce a normal and complete bowel movement without causing harsh side effects such as gas, bloating, cramping or sudden urgency. MiraLAX® is different from other laxatives like some stimulant laxatives, which make you go by forcefully stimulating the nerves in your colon.

    Mix MiraLAX® into Any Hot or Cold Beverage

    MiraLAX® has no taste or grit and easily dissolves completely into 4-8 ounces of any hot or cold beverage.
