To use Colyte Lavage Prep liquid, you should follow the instructions provided by your doctor or the instructions on the product label carefully. Generally, Colyte is a bowel cleansing product used to cleanse the bowel prior to a colonoscopy. It comes as a powder mixed with water to form a solution consumed orally. Drink plenty of clear liquids as directed by your doctor to prevent dehydration.
The typical dosing schedule for Colyte involves drinking four liters (one gallon) of the solution. Thoroughly mix four liters of clear liquid with the Colyte powder and drink the mixed liquid according to the instructions provided. Usually, watery bowel movements begin within one hour after you start to drink the mixed liquid. You should continue drinking clear liquids after you have finished two liters of the prep until midnight.
Note that patient compliance with the necessary four liters of colon lavage fluid is essential for optimal bowel cleansing. Your doctor may also give you tips to make the colonoscopy prep more bearable. Consult your doctor or healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns about using Colyte Lavage Prep liquid or any other bowel cleansing product.
