Can I Take Second Bottle Of Suprep To Have A Bowel Movement?
Hi, I m taking Suprep for colonoscopy tomorrow. I took first bottle of liquid at 6 pm per Dr. s instruction at 6 pm. 6 and half hours later, I still have no bowl movement, only a little cramps. Should I start my 2 bottler of liquid now? I m going to have My colonoscopy test at 10am tomorrow. Thank you.
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it is nothing to worry if do not have the bowel movement or did not pass the stool prior to colonoscopy even after given the laxative or purgative if the bowel is empty then you may not pass the stool, moreover you will be given the best instruction if doctor finds something related with bowel movement, else no need to have any more medicine or given medicine (Suprep) hope this information helps.
