Instructions may include the following changes:  \n• Stop medications that are for diarrhea (Imodium®, Kaopectate®) or that contain iron 7 days prior to your procedure.  \n• You will need to temporarily discontinue blood thinners prior to your procedure. The length of time to stop your medication depends on the drug you are taking. Please consult your prescribing doctor.  \n• If you are diabetic, your medications may need to be adjusted. Please consult your prescribing doctor.  \n• Take your usual morning medications (including blood pressure medications), at least 4 hours prior to your procedure with a small amount of water.  \nm SCHEDULE your colonoscopy. Please call our Patient Communication Center (PCC) at 310-825-7540 to schedule your colonoscopy if it was not scheduled for you at your clinic appointment.
