Can you take magnesium citrate with lactulose or with miralax?

Why would you like to take two powerful laxative together? Yes, you can take any two together but there should be specific reason and close monitoring must be ongoing. If constipation is so troubling, please see a gastroenterologist. Hope it helps.
