Is this the same as MiraLax?

I've taken it for years. It's EXACTLY the same as Miralax. Exactly. Ask your doctor or pharmacist. It's a very simple, inert chemical. There's no "medicine" in Miralax. It's a simple compound that absorbs and holds water in your system. It's the only product truly safe for long term use. So it's the favorite for people on pain killers or other meds that can constipate. Best Use? Add to hot coffee or tea each morning. Dissolves immediately and has no taste or film.

Hi, thank you for your question about the Basic Care ClearLax. The container has 765 grams and the recommended dose is 17 grams. The bottle should have approximately 45 servings. If you would like additional information, please let us know and we would be happy to further assist you.

You would need to contact the manufacturer, Perrigo Company plc, which is based in Dublin, or Perrigo Consumer Healthcare Americas, which is the distributor. According to the label, Basic Care ClearLax is comparable to the same product sold under the Perrigo name, and appears to be a "house" brand for Amazon, since that is the only place I have seen Basic Care OTC products.
