Phillips' Milk of Magnesia is a laxative that contains 1200 mg of magnesium hydroxide in every 15mL. It can be used to relieve occasional constipation and produces a bowel movement six hours after use. The product is distributed by Bayer HealthCare LLC and is available in the US via the Phillips' trademark. The instructions provide details on dosing and what to do if a person experiences rectal bleeding or no bowel movement after using the product. However, individuals with kidney disease, on magnesium-restricted diets or with a sudden bowel change lasting over 14 days, should consult a doctor before use. Similarly, if taking any prescription drug, the user should also consult a doctor or pharmacist. The product may interact with certain medications. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek a health professional's advice before use. The product should be kept out of reach of children, and any overdose should be reported to a poison control center for intervention.*
