All laxative medicines are dangerous for kids in some way. Therefore, I prefer to give my son only natural laxatives like prunes and pears. Cabbage also does great job for that purpose. I always try to avoid as much as possibe all pills.
My husbands ex- wife gives my stepdaughter Miralax everyother day since she was about 1 she is 10 yrs of age know is this bad ? When she coughs or sneezes she messes her pant. Could you give me aome advise how to fix this ?
