Guest guest Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 If someone you know has VUR, before you go the antibiotic route, please look into D-Mannose. > > My 3 year old daughter has VUR. Basically it is when the valves connecting the ureters and bladder don’t function properly and allow urine to backflow into the kidneys causing infection. She had reimplantation surgery so no longer has the reflux, but suffers from constipation, as many VUR kids do. Both her urologist and pediatrician recommended Miralax daily. I was giving it to her with no apparent side effects until I came across this group and will now investigate further. > > > > From: miralax [mailto:miralax ] On Behalf Of CAChitter@... > Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2012 7:31 AM > To: miralax > Subject: Re: VUR > > > > > > I think VUR is a mechanical issue - my nephew had it and I had my daughter tested - but it can lead to serious infections - maybe kids who don't know they have it and get uti's and are on miralax are more vulnerable to the effects of peg? > > > > In a message dated 5/30/2012 9:59:34 P.M.
