Hi Diana, I take Apixaban and have on occasions resorted to Laxido which is a cheaper version of movicol and more widely used, with no side effects and no problems. My partner takes Rivoroxaban and similarly has had no problems with occasional Laxido usage.

No reaction for me with Warfarin. I've had two colonoscopies, and one sigmoidoscopy, but a different laxative used for that, plus an enema.
