Pesach Faqs

Q. Which laxatives may I use on Pesac?

A. Any laxative which comes as a pill which one swallows (as opposed to chewing) is acceptable, as it is considered inedible. However, most laxatives are sold as powders which one mixes with water or another beverage. These are therefore considered edible, such that one must have information as to whether the powder contains chametz (or non-kosher ingredients). See the cRc website for updated information as to which laxatives are acceptable for this Pesach.
