Re: Re: Miralax -- was Dulcolax for colonoscopy prep

[Guest guest]

Hmm, I use Miralax every day (and have used it for 5 years) and it has no taste. I realize there's a big difference between 17 grams of Miralax in a glass of water or diluted juice once or twice a day, and what you needed for the colonoscopy prep. when you had to drink a large volume of it in a short period of time. Still, just thought I'd mention that I have found Miralax itself has no taste.

I've had two different colonoscopy prep. "drinks" and had the same problem with both of them. Lots of nausea, and difficulty in getting all that liquid down in such a short time. It is never easy. I have found it helps not drinking anything sweet at the same time, so I wait to drink diluted fruit juices until after I've had the prep stuff and the E-Lyte.

Glad your colonoscopy went well and had such good results. That is great news.
