What is working for me is one dose of Miralax daily, spaced a couple hours between servings of Citrucel or psyllium fiber. Previously I was also taking 4 oz of prune juice in the morning, but stopped because of it's high sugar content. These steps were at the recommendation of my G.I. Dr. He also said Citrucel would produce less gas than psyllium.

How much Citrucrl do you take daily? In past a full dose of Miralax is more than I can handle. Have cut it to alternate days and reduced dosage of Miralax at my Drs suggestion —still not resolving issues. For about 13 days I was functioning without any of above then constipation returned! Strange!
