Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am preparing for my fifth colonoscopy since 1997 in 5 days from now, so I know the routine. Each time I have been given a different prep procedure. This time I have been instructed to use Prepopik. Last time it was Osmoprep, before that it was a Fleet prep. Walgreen s wants $166 for Prepopik. I need something that s effective but a lot more affordable than that. Can you make a recommendation.
