Is this the prep that involves taking 4 Dulcolax bisacodyl tablets followed by 64 oz. of gatorade, something like 8 oz every 15 minutes?????

Hello, heyjoe415,

At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC, the prep the GI assigned me involves cutting down your diet as described, but for the concoction itself, mix a large bottle (238 grams) of Miralax with 2 liters of clear transparent or yellow fluid (I used bottled lemonade as it blocks the taste well) along with Ducolax. I spent the night in the bathroom and went about 4 times on the train to the City, but I was clear. If interested, go to the MSKCC home page and search colonoscopy prep.

All the best.
