| Core Tip |
Unlike chronic constipation, which typically needs to be diagnosed by a healthcare professional, occasional constipation is a self-diagnosed condition. polyethylene glycol (PEG) 3350 (MiraLAX?) is a Food and Drug Administration-approved, once-daily oral over-the-counter laxative indicated for short-term (1 wk) use to relieve occasional constipation. However, very few data are available on the effectiveness of PEG 3350 for the treatment of occasional constipation. This is the first placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PEG 3350 in subjects with occasional constipation after a week’s treatment.
