This is PediCast.

Welcome to Pediacast, a pediatric podcast for parents.

And now, direct from the campus of nationwide children's, here is your host, Dr. Mike.

Hello, everyone, and welcome.

Once again to Pediacast.

It is a pediatric podcast for moms and dads.

This is Dr. Mike, coming to you from the campus of nationwide children's hospital.

We're in Columbus, Ohio.

It's episode 416 for October 2, 2018.

We're calling this one pylonidal disease, infant walkers, and teen suicide.

I want to welcome you to the program.

We have an information packed show for you this week with terrific topics for parents with kids of all ages from infants through teenagers, as you could tell from the title

of today's program.

We are covering pylidylidal disease more on exactly what that is in a couple of minutes.

We're also going to explore the safety of Murillax, which a lot of kids take, you know,

sometimes on a daily basis over a long period of time for constipation.

And adults take it too, so many parents will be interested in this topic for their own health.

But we're going to talk about the safety of Mirralax because there have been some reports about possibility of Mirralax not being safe.

And with so many people taking it, there is a new study out that does speak directly to the safety factor of Miralax.

So I think a lot of folks will be interested in that.

So a stick around.

We're also going to cover safety considerations as they relate to infant walkers.
