Can i give my 12 yr old son mira lax for stomach ache? if so what's the dosage

Miralax is for: treatment of constipation. Not for tummy pain. Have you considered making him some fresh organic ginger tea? Honey can be added to improve the flavor. Or he could nibble on crystallized ginger. Take care.
