Suggest Medication For Pre Endoscopy

I took 4 bisacodyl 5mg at 3 pm today followed at6:30 pm drinking 64 oz of Gatorade mixed with 8.3 oz of clear lax. I have already ingested about 45 oz of this drink, spacing each glass about 10 minutes apart,at this point I still do not feel any urge to go. Is this OK? I m doing this prior to an endoscopic procedure scheduled fo tomorrow 11AM.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I rally appreciate your concern you did not say Endoscopy of what you are going for, more over you would be inform by the doctor who is going to perform this procedure, that what medication you need to take and what diet you suppose to take prior to procedure and in my opinion if this is endoscopy of GI tract then you suppose to be nil by mouth, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
