Bowel prep options for colonoscopy
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study compares different ways of preparing your bowel for a colonoscopy (a test that looks inside your large intestine). It aims to find which method is easier to take and works better at cleaning the bowel, so you may have a more comfortable and effective procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be able to drink at least three-quarters (75%) of the bowel prep liquid.
- You need to read and understand the study instructions.
- You must agree to take part in the study.
- You should not have active bleeding in your lower intestine.
- You should not have liver failure, end-stage kidney failure, or the condition referred to as KKY.

This trial compares two ways to clean the bowel before a colonoscopy: a 4-liter split-dose of a laxative plus two other medications versus a 2-liter split-dose with a gas-relief medication. The goal is to see which works better and is easier to tolerate.
This study looks at what factors might make it harder to clean out your bowel before a colonoscopy. Understanding these reasons could help doctors give better instructions and improve success rates.
This study tests whether combining an electrolyte beverage (a drink with salts and minerals) with polyethylene glycol—a standard bowel-cleaning solution—helps prepare your colon better for colonoscopy. The goal is to see if this combination makes the preparation easier to tolerate while still cleaning your bowel effectively.
This trial tests a new liquid solution that you drink before a colonoscopy to see if it cleans the colon better than the usual prep. If you're scheduled for a colonoscopy, this might make the procedure more effective and comfortable.
This study looks at factors that affect how well the bowel is cleaned before a colonoscopy in people with IBD. The goal is to improve preparation so the colonoscopy can be more effective.
This study tests if watching a short video and reading a booklet helps patients prepare better for a colonoscopy compared to just getting standard instructions. Good preparation makes the procedure safer and more effective.
