Since the start
of 2017, a growing
number of parents have come forward complaining
of a
myriad of psychological, behavorial, and neurological symptoms that they have been linked to the active ingredient propylene glycol (PEG) found in Miralax and some
other laxatives — these side effect include tics, stuttering, anger / aggression, depression, anxiety, memory
issues, obsessive - compulsive behavior, and more.
The defence in some cases might be based entirely on the Charter
of Rights and Freedoms or eyewitness identification problems or intoxication
issues or
other myriad factors unaffected by the particular name
of the charge or section
number of the Criminal Code or Controlled Drugs and Substances Act under which the charge was laid.
