Glycoprep Orange 3 x 70g Sachets
Description:
Glycoprep orange is indicated for bowel emptying and cleansing by means of total gastrointestinal tract perfusion in preparation for gastrointestinal procedure (such as colonoscopy, barium enema x-ray examination), prior to intravenous pyelograms (IVP) or colonic surgery.
Glycoprep produces watery stools or bowel motions within about an hour after the first administration and after 4 hours should produce a clear discharge.
It contains macrogol, which acts as a laxative in the intestine. Macrogol works by causing excess water to remain in your stool and stimulates bowel movements. This results in watery stool or bowel motions which removes the bowel contents and ensures the bowel is clean before the examination or procedure.
Ingredients:
Each sachet contains macrogol 3350, sodium sulfate, sodium chloride and potassium chloride, as the active ingredients. It also contains ascorbic acid, silicon dioxide, natural orange flavour and natural Stevia sweetener. This medicine does not contain lactose, sucrose, gluten, tartrazine, any other azo dyes or sulfites.
Usage Directions:
It is important that you follow the instructions specifically given by your doctor, prescriber or pharmacist and that you drink plenty of Recommended Clear Fluids.
Your doctor, prescriber or pharmacist will have informed you of the dose that you should take and when to take it.
