Osmotic laxative: Try using an osmotic laxative like Miralax (polyethylene glycol 3350) Begin with every other day and adjust the dose as needed. At the same time fortify your bowel bacteria with natural probiotics like yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchee or kfir. You should see improvement within several weeks. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
