miralax question

My 4 year old DD had a traumatic constipation experience over the last few days (sorry...tmi). Ive been giving her pedilax which is so hard to get her to take bc she can taste it in her juice... Things do seem to be getting better and I want to keep it going in the right direction. I see that alot of people give their kids miralax when they have those problems and it seems to work well... How much to would you give a 4 year old if I decide to go that route?

TIA

Re: miralax question

I give it to my DD when she gets really backed up.
I give her half a capful every other day in her juice.
I tried every day and it made her go TOOO much and toooo soft.
So half a capful every other day does the trick- until she is going normally again

ETA- she is 4 years old as well
