Quick cure for constipation?

You can take a dulcolax pill, but they really cause me abdominal distress for a few hours. I have been putting one cap of miralax in my nightly drink. I sip it slowly, it has no taste. If I forget a day, I pay for it. So I'm starting to remember to do this nightly. You can do more than a capful of miralax for a "quicker" reaction. We had to drink an entire bottle of it (in lots of fluids) for our pre-surgery clean out. I didn't need even half to be cleaned out. A couple of capfuls in 16 oz of fluid would probably be ok, but I'd call your surgeon just to make sure.
