Jevity Question
UpdatedMy dad has been on Jevity 1.5 since receiving a Peg tube in February. Most recently, he has complaints of constipation, and digestive issues. He has seen his doctor about this situation, and was recommended to take Miralax. He takes Miralax, but still remains constipated and bloated. Is there anyone else who has or knows of anyone who has these issues? If so, what are they taking or any recommendations to help with the issues??

Yes, it is pretty potent with the amount of nutrients it contains and has been known to cause those types of issues in some people that are on it, as well as nausea.
He should speak to his doctor, again. They may need to prescribe something stronger to help with these issues, if the Miralax isn't doing it.
Does anyone else have any ideas of what might help?
