I am having a colonoscopy and my doctor has me taking 4 Doculax and a bottle of the Miralax powder with 64 oz of Gateraide. Is this the usual way this is done? Seems like a lot to me. Thanks for any help.
Is it standard practice to take 238g of Miralax before a colonoscopy?

Thats what I was told to take when I had mine this past July. I had to divide half of the water mixture and take the 2nd half 5 hrs before my procedure. I do not like sports drinks so I mixed mine with pink lemonade. I still have no desire for pink lemonade.
