Miralax will draw water into your colon but will not make things move. You can do a stimulant lax like dulcolax or senocot which will usually produce a big clean out. Sometimes I add-in just a half tsp of Calm magnesium powder with the Miralax. The combo works for me. I do Miralax in am and calm in pm.

Hey Sally, what is Calm magnesium? I've tried magnesium to treat CIC and it's all or nothing. I'm sure I'm using the wrong stuff or the wrong dose, maybe both.

Thanks! Joe
