I received instructions from Mayo to follow their instructions and not the instructions on the package. I'm glad I did, it was smooth sailing. My procedure is Friday. I did not eat anything solid on Wednesday or Thursday - and my Thursday night prep is no problem. I drank it at room temp and did not get cold, no nausea, and clear (yellow) water within 3 hours. Oh, and glycerine suppositories ... Show Full Comment

Oh, and glycerine suppositories b4 the prep helped grease the pipes so no soreness. I drank 3/4 on Thursday night and will do 1/4 three hours b4 procedure. I recommend this product.

It did not come with a flavor packet and I didn't realize you could put Crystal Lite in it. Wow, all I can say is get some Crystal Lite and chill well. It took me four hours to down the bottle..mainly because I was on the verge of vomiting most of the time. I played a computer game to distract me from the misery. I had weighed myself right before the ordeal and afterwards when the toilet runs subsided, I had gained 2 pounds. Depressing to see after not eating all day! The rest was still coming out the next morning. Drinking 8 pounds of liquid however is just scary to me. So my tips are get Crystal Lite in flavor of choice, it probably would be better than what is supposed to come with it...find a distraction in between running to the bathroom.

I was freezing while drinking this stuff - took many hot showers to warm up. Also have edema and light headedness.

for something thing that is supposed to "empty you" I would have been just as far ahead to take imodium to be honest. over 2 litres drunk and two days later no movement of any kind and a sever burning in my throat from the stuff. never again.
