I'll be having a colonoscopy on Friday and drinking a gallon of Nulyte (powder I have to mix with a gallon of water) as part of the prep. Has anyone else used this stuff before? I haven't had it. Is it easy to get down? Thanks.

Have you seen this thread ...

It's not Nulyte related, but the products are along the same lines.

Just pinch your nose and down it. :)

I had to drink the Nulytely as the prep for the colonoscopy I had done in May of this year. I used the pineapple flavoring packet, and the stuff was still vile! Make the mixture up the morning of the day you have to drink it, and then stash it in the fridge to get it ice cold. It's more palatible when it's cold. My strategy was to pour a glass of it, hold my nose, and just chug it down. I had drunk the whole gallon before I started going, but once I started, I like to have never stopped...spent the whole night on the pot. Make friends with your bathroom...you'll spend alot of time there!

Good Luck,
Meg

Thanks. I just did a bowel prep - with magnesium citrate - for my laparoscopy in September and I NOT looking forward to doing another one! :rolleyes: It's too much!
