I took that horrible moviprep last night ready for my colonoscopy this morning I’m dreading it. Surely there is something better to take to clear you out .

I agree with you. You'd think after all these years they could come up with something more gentle that doesn't leave you with a raw bottom.

OMG moviprep is so bad. I wore bands on my wrist to prevent the nausea but it tasted so bad. I didn’t manage to finish mine. Possibly left about 300ml it got to the point where I was just like no more just no more lol
