My 2 month old is constipated and the doc told me to use a half teaspoon of Milk of Magnesia. Isn’t that a big dose?

Your doctor should know what to use and how much; after all he/she went to medical school. If you want, call your local pharmacy and ask the pharmacist. I wouldn’t go by anything about dosage that you get for answers on here.

I’ve personally never used it for any of my children. If you don’t feel comfortable with that dose, then just call your pediatrician back and verify. Or call a local pharmacist and verify.
