I do not make any specific recommendations as it depends on the GI specialist and patient. As long as they are aware that it will take a day or so extra to get cleaned up.

Should those laxatives be taken on more than one day in order to prep? Thank you for your help.

I understand that doing some research can help you find the best way to keep your insides clean. Personally, I would also want to take the time to find a professional I can trust so I can get the type of examination I need to keep my stomach clean.
