@debbraw I wonder if that is as effective and if most GI doctors allow that instead of the other horrendous prep. I hopefully won’t need a colonoscopy for quite a while but I really hate the other prep.

@contentandwell - JK, I think it is as effective as the others. 5 years ago, Miralax was not on the approved Mayo list for colonoscopy preps. This year, I was so delighted that it was. As careful as Mayo is, I'm sure lots of research went into giving it approval. This is probably more than you want to know, but Mayo assesses the quality of bowel preparation on each colonoscopy using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale. On my results, they gave me the numerical rating on that scale and they said the quality of the prep was good.
