For Bowel Preparation "I had a colonoscopy on March 8, 2023, and the prep was Sutab. I followed all the instructions perfectly. Although the bowel prep was deemed "good" by the GI doc, NEVER again will I go near Sutab. I suffered from extreme abdominal pain, nausea, and explosive diarrhea for 10 hours. I'm one day post-procedure, and I still feel sick, nauseated, and overall terrible. This product needs to be withdrawn from the market. It was absolute torture, cruel, and abusive doing this prep. I'm a big, strong woman, and it literally brought me to my knees. I feel like I'm going to have PTSD from this experience."

For Bowel Preparation "I followed directions, and immediately after the 1st dose, it definitely worked. I was nonstop in the restroom. I couldn’t even sip water. It was horrible! By the next day, I was so scared to take the 2nd dose because I couldn’t even keep down water. Took my 2nd dose on the day of the procedure, and immediately after that, I got intense abdominal pain and was vomiting bile. No matter how much water I drank, I was so dehydrated. I thought I was going to faint. The procedure ended up going well, but now I’m on day 4 after the procedure, still having diarrhea and not being able to really eat because I get bad stomach pain and diarrhea. On day 3, the pain was so bad it woke me up from deep sleep and sent me to the ER. All tests came back negative for anything serious, but here I am still in pain with trouble eating/drinking and diarrhea. And yes, I’m following up with GI. Did not have this pain and diarrhea before, and I would never take it again or recommend it to anyone."

For Bowel Preparation "This medication needs to be withdrawn as a bowel prep. It has caused several people to have terrible gastric discomfort: nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Causes too much discomfort before the procedure is done."
