Can I add lemonade to Moviprep drink?

[NewChapter11]

Posting here rather than Health for a quick response. Really struggling to get this drink down me as it's already given me a blinding headache 500 ml in.

You have my sympathy - it is VILE!! I think you'd be OK with lemonade, as it's a clear fluid. Good luck!

I added Lilt to it and it was fine (full bowel prep before major surgery).

Yes or orange squash , it’s better ice cold too

Try taking alternate sips of lemonade as well.

Doing KittenLed's alternating lemonade sips. It's nearing the 2 hour mark and I've still 300ml left, just can't believe I'm struggling so much over a poncy drink (I thought this was the easy bit )

Yes. Any clear fluid is fine.

My morale improved enormously when I discovered black coffee counts as clear fluid!

I used 7up. Vile vile stuff. The colonoscopy itself was a breeze.

Use a straw if you have one, put it right to the back of your tongue and gulp it down as quick as possible. It's vile stuff but the straw means you barely taste it

Unfortunately I don't have any straws.
So sips in between black coffee is fine too Ethelswith?

I may have had gin alongside mine....

Something to read as you wait. I'm assuming this stuff is to clean you out like picolax.

Just neck it. Nothing is going to make it better. As PP said, after this, the colonoscopy itself is a breeze. I sleep through them.

Hate it with a passion! I suck mints between trying to neck it!
