A member asked:

My 8 year old daughter has been on miralax (polyethylene glycol) since she was a year old. for the past 2 years she has had a skin rash on elbows and knees. any link possib?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

DETAILS????: Why is the child using a laxative? If there is not a very, very good reason, this needs serious attention from a DR, preferably a gastroenterologist. No, the rash, probably eczema or psoriasis, is not due to miralax (polyethylene glycol). This is best addressed by a dermatologist.
