I took MiraLAX this morning with my coffee. Has anyone taken MiraLax? Does it work? How long before you get a bowel movement? I put two teaspoons in my coffee, so I hope I put enough in.

It works but slowly. The coffee should help though

Usually it’ll kick in around 30 or so minutes. If you took the amount instructed (usually half of the cap) it’ll kick in around 15-20 minutes. With coffee and it being a couple of teaspoons though give or take maybe 25-30 minutes you also have to register movement as well

it depends on ur size tbh, and i think possibly the way ur body absorbs other medications. like if a bit of tylenol helps u, i think by now it should be starting to work. if u feel like no painkiller helps u, or u have a high alcohol intolerance, or high bmi… two teaspoons might not be enough.
