Moviprep... has it worked enough?

I have a colonoscopy at 12:30 today so started taking moviprep at 5 yesterday (second one at 8:30pm) as per instructions. Was on the loo most of the evening. This morning I still have bright yellow liquid. I thought it was meant to look like water by now so I’m worried it hasn’t worked. Can anyone reassure me?

Bright yellow is fine from my experience. Last time I had one, I had bright yellow liquid until right before the procedure. And on my report it says the prep was excellent.

Best of luck with the procedure. Yellow is absolutely fine.

All went well and I was able to have the colonoscopy. They should update their instructions to say clear doesn’t mean “looks like water” but rather entirely liquid and most likely a yellow colour.
