Weaning off of Miralax

Hi, lcezelle12 (@lcezelle12)

After several weeks of heavy-duty antibiotics (because of sepsis), I found myself pretty well bound up. I resorted to a dose of Metamucil on rising, a capful of Miralax midday, and some fried prunes or prune juice toward the end of the day. The result? I sure un-bound myself, too much! Luckily, because I'd not overdone the daily dose of either the Metamucil or the Miralax, I was able to cut out the Miralax with no withdrawal symptoms. These days, I still take a heaping tspn of Metamucil and drink about 4 oz of prune juice. How's it going? Pretty well. I have a BM most days; a little too much "pushing," perhaps, but it feels good to be regular.

Good luck with your Miralax detox!

Fried prunes? Never heard of them!
