Movieprep

Not health board I know but has anyone had this? I've taken my 1st litre of movieprep at 7 this evening for colonoscopy tomorrow but nothings happened! From what I had gathered, I'd be well emptied by now. Does this mean i may not be able to have the procedure or does it take a lot longer to work?

Have you tried to go? I was under the impression that I'd have no choice in the matter but found nothing was happening until I went and tried. Then it allllll started...

Interested in this thread?

I've had several colonoscopies with Moviprep. First litre... zero effect.
Some point during the second litre... trust me it will happen....

And when it does it does repeatedly over quite a few hours!!!!

Good luck!

Also, shouldn't you have taken the next lot by now?

MrsTaytodarling · 04/04/2019 22:21

No, my next lot isn't until 6am. And I have tried to go but it feels like I'm constipated which is rare for me Confused

I'd take the next lot now... I have always taken one after the other for good clearance!

MrsTaytodarling · 04/04/2019 22:27

Really still?

Taking it now could lead to an uncomfortable night...

Thanks everyone for the advice! It worked this morning and the procedure went well Grin
