Parents and pediatricians are asking whether large doses and long term use PEG 3350 laxatives in children could lead to possible side effects.

We listened to his chest with a stethescope many times but we never heard wheezing. Finally, we decided to treat him with albuterol, which is a reliever medicine that everyone with asthma should always have available....
