First time Colonoscopy
I have been given
Picolax
. I am concerned about the prep as my friend told me you don't have time to get up the stairs to the toilet, and I should stay upstairs after taking the prep solution; is this correct?

Picolax
however I have always used moviprep so I know exactly what to expect as it goes through my system and I understand how it works especially with the volume of fluids it gives plenty of fuel to keep going all day and night however there is a shortage of moviprep and my bowel surgeon has had to put me on

picolax with impacted stool
I decided
picolax
is my last resort I only took one sachet and felt a lot of water coming out after fifteen minutes o been going to the toilet but only watery liquid is coming out. I have been taking a lot of movicol so idk if that’s the reason.

Colonscopy
(
Picolax
) After the first one I was incontinent for 4 days. Still recovering from the second, the Dr said to eat as normal, so I did my whole fibre diet (re pre diabetes ) After a incontinent first day, blurred vision second day, followed by a white stool.

Picolax disimpaction
I’m currently doing a
picolax
disimpaction with my child. X ray showed stool in the ascending colon. On day 2 of
picolax
. How do you know if you’ve fully disimpacted? Is it similar to movicol where you get to rusty tea stage?

Nearly four year old holding poo
She held a poo for 9 days and she finally let one go on the potty last night (after a lot of screaming and bouncing on the potty) I feel like the
picolax
may be getting her going, but obviously we still have a big problem here.

Picolax prep for bowel lap- really worried!
I'm being prescribed
Picolax
which I've been told is a 'nice one' to have, if there is a nice one! Could anyone please share their experiences of
Picolax
bowel prep? How long were you on the toilet for? Does it hurt (I usually have pain when number 2-ing anyway)?

Picolax - what to expect?
The consultant has prescribed
Picolax
& Senna in combination for 24 hours (on a non school day) to clear her out. Does anyone have any experience of this mediation for their child?

Bowel prep for colonoscopy - long post. Sorry.
The doc recommended "
Picolax
" plus some Movicol (softener). But I also purchased some softener and Dulcolax tablets from chemist to start things moving. By Friday, I had still not received the
Picolax
from hospital so i had to call them.

Picolax before bowel resection
Does anyone know what sort of dietary changes I need to do before taking
Picolax
for bowel resection surgery? I've just been given the medicine with instructions on when to take it.
