You may delay the next dose 30 minutes, until you feel less nauseous. You should see results within 3-4 hours.

Brush teeth or use a mouth rinse  \nv) Busy yourself with an activity for distraction  \n2)“The prep doesn’t seem to be working-what do I do?”  \nSomething you can do is drink extra amounts of clear liquids. If you normally have constipation, it could take 5-6 hours to work, so give it time. If you had a bowel movement several hours prior to taking the prep you may not see results with first dose. Continue the prep as per instructions. Take additional 2 tablets of dulcolax if needed.  \n3)“Can I take my heartburn, blood pressure etc. medications the night before and morning of the prep?”  \nSee page 1 of your prep sheet.
