I really don't know if Miralax is causing this side effect but I have been on Miralax for 3 years and then starting having problems with sores, burning and salty mouth. I had the sore removed by an oral surgeon and it came back as chronic inflammatory mouth , cause could be food, meds or oral products like toothpaste, mouthwash and etc. I did have a new night guard made and noticed after three nights my mouth started burning and I got a sore and had allergy tests,egd, went to ent Dr. and had X Rays and went to an internet, dentist and oral surgeon. I also have eliminated foods, drugs and don't wear a night guard and even went off Miralax and a stool softener with no improvement. I went back on Miralax and still even if I'm on it or off it I still have a sore mouth. what am I to do????????

I was first diagnosed with hypertension in the late 80's and have been on several different medications to treat it. I think that Lisinopril is the worst that I have been on. I have extreme fatigue and severe dry and burning mouth, sore tongue and difficulty breathing and flu like symptoms. I have anxiety and PTSD so my symptoms have been blamed on that. With all these symptoms,
I sometimes wonder if it would be better off to have the hypertension.
Sometimes my mouth and throat is so dry and sore, I can't eat and I have difficulty breathing which is not addressed with asthma medication. Daytime symptoms are bad at night but when night time comes, it is almost impossible to sleep.
I would be interested if anyone has these symptoms and would like to hear from you.

I was treated for gastric reflux last year and took Lansoprazole but experienced severe burning mouth,lips and throat after 2 weeks. Then I went on Omeprazole 10mg for two months which suited me altho did burn sometimes. Had an endoscopy diagnose of an inflamed esophagus who suggested a higher dose. Doctors changed me to Nexium 20mg and after a few days experienced that burning sensation again. Went off drug after two weeks as unbearable but experienced acid asthma type symptoms so returned to Omeprazole 10mg but after 4 days the burning is back again and finding it intolerant now. Anyone else experience burning mouth throat and lips whilst on the drug? Doctors say keep on it and take Galveston as well but how can it be reflux when I no longer suffer from heartburn?
