My prep for Osmoprep pills. You have to take 4 pills every 15 minutes with 8 oz of water 3 times, then I have to take 2 tablets with gingerale(for some reason)(total 14 Osmo pills) then 2 Dulcolax. All this the night berfore. The next morning I have to repeat all starting 5 hours before. Also must drink 16 oz of clear lliquid after done the first 14 tablets, not in the AM. That is still a lot of liquid but at least I like water and you can use applejuice. By the way they are BIG horse pills.
I have never used this prep before and had no idea I would need to so much liquid. In my past ones I used the Fleets Phospho soda and it was a breeze but that is not allowed anymore because of kidney problem in some people. Same warning that is on the pills as I see it. Fleets was really easy and is still on the market but doctors can't prescribe it and there is a warning on it that says not to be used for colonscopy prep. Too bad as it worked well and was so easy.
