What to do about constipation during pregnancy?

Hi, thanks for your question!

PEG-3350 (Lax-A-Day, Pegalax, Restoralax, and other companies) is an odorless, tasteless powder that you can mix into any liquid. The adult dose is 17 grams in one amount of liquid (This 17 gram dose is usually indicated in the cap or the product comes with a measure)

PEG-3350 helps to soften stool and helps to expand the volume of stool to better stimulate the bowels to pass it. It works quickly, and is safe in all trimesters of pregnancy and also during breastfeeding.

I hope this has been helpful to you, so please don't hesitate to ask if you have any other questions!

We look forward to hearing from you!
