Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am scheduled for a colonoscopy for Monday October 26th and I bought my Colyte on Tuesday October 20th and mixed it with water on Wednesday October 21st and put in fridge. Will it still work I have to take it on Sunday the 25th or do I have to get a knew jug?
Hello I have gone through your question and understand your concern. The Colyte solution must be used within 48 hours of preparation even when stored refrigerated. After reconstitution the solution should not be consumed after 48 hours as it may be contaminated with microbes and is not absolutely safe for consumption. Hope your concern is answered. Thank you.
