Miralax vs Zelnorm       09/28/06 11:20 AM Edit Reply Quote Syl Reged: 03/13/05 Posts: 5499 Loc: SK, CANADA Miralax works in a completely different manner than Zelnorm. Miralax works in a similar manner to milk of magnesia. It is an osmotic laxative that work by drawing water into the bowel from the surrounding tissue. Zelnorm works on a biochemical pathway (seritonin) affecting nerves that change the peristaltic action (contractions) of the bowel. http://www.helpforibs.com/footer/zelnorm.asp#well Neither one is recommended for long term use. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
