Guest guest Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Don't forget to add, many children have died from this drug...see attached To: miralax Sent: Sun, March 11, 2012 10:21:15 AMSubject: my email thoughts Miralax – Please Read as Urgent!!!! This is a medication massively used by doctors to treat constipation from age 0 to 100. It is prescribed for children even though it has not been approved for children. The primary ingrediant is Polyethylene Glycol 3350. Children are showing horrible side effects from taking this med. Just a small list of these are tics, behaviour issues, stomach pain and upset, dehydration, hyponatremia caused by dehydration, painful urination, dental problems,etc. The gas pains are tremendous but a huge problem is FAILURE TO THRIVE. Adults taking this drug have also suffered. Personally I can speak that my bowels have frozen up since my few months on Miralax. I too have dehydration and have lost a kidney to cancer so am very angry they prescribed this to me. FDA reports adverse events. The numbers have shot into over 2000 at our last count, there has been death from it and one little boy nearly lost his life due to his colon dying. This drug has a large list of names. Here in Canada Lax a day and Restoralax are the 2 most common. In the USA Miralax, Golytely, Dulcolax Balance and others are a few different forms this takes. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If we can refine this to a standard I will post it on my personal Facebook page and supply a link to our facebook page. I will also do a bulk mailing to anyone I can think of who may have kids, or may be affected themselves. This can use the dreaded chain letter thing asking people to spread it if they are concerned, it may not work but is worth a try to me. I will work further on this and contact you later. 1 of 1 File(s) children.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 In your sentence, "The numbers have shot into over 2000 at our last count..."I suggest you add something about where the numbers started. It might incite more urgency. Miralax – Please Read as Urgent!!!! This is a medication massively used by doctors to treat constipation from age 0 to 100.
