Is Miralax Advisable For A Toddler While Having Diarrhea?
My 2 yr. old granddaughter has stomach pain. After x-rays, they said she has severe constipation all the way into her upper colon. Yet she has had diarrhea. Is this possible? They want her on Miralax (16 oz. over 4 hrs.) Does this sound reasonable to you?
