What Causes Thin Stool While On Miralax?
I m taking Miralax daily, according to instructions. Two questions: ! - The label says to stop using Miralax after 7 days. Why? 2 - I notice that my stools are small and of reduced caliber or diameter, as if formed in the ascending or transverse colon - not lower in the tract. Is this usual?
