Constipation: If you have been constipated for a while you may also want to take MiraLax to soften the stool from the top. Also it helps to go and sit on the toilet after a meal for 20 min ( that is the time you are most likely to have a BM). If you also have abdominal pain then you need further evaluation, please call one the HealthTap physicians
