A member asked:

Can i take miralax at same time as other medications ? i take blood thinners?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There are no known negative interactions between MiraLax and any common anticoagulant medications (blood thinners). You should be fine to take these together. I would speak to your pharmacist or your prescribing clinician to confirm.
