A colonoscopy is a procedure that enables your doctor to examine the lining of the colon (large intestine). The instrument used for the procedure is a flexible tube that is gently passed through the anus into the colon. A tissue biopsy may be taken or polyps removed. Colonoscopy is the best test to assess for colon polyps, inflammation, or cancer.  \nWHAT BOWEL PREPARATION IS REQUIRED? For the procedure to be accurate, the colon must be completely clean. This is achieved by closely following the colonoscopy instructions. The preparation will cause diarrhea in order to clean the colon. A prescription will be provided for the preparation to be purchased at your local pharmacy.  \nWHAT DO I NEED TO BRING? Wear loose fitted clothing and leave jewelry and valuables at home. You will need to provide ID, a health information card, and payment method if there is a co-pay for the procedure.  \nHOW LONG IS THE PROCEDURE? On average, the procedure time is between 20-30 minutes. Allow 2-3 hours from your arrival time until it is safe for you to go home. It is important to arrive on time to allow for timely check-in and pre-procedure admission.  \nWHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE PROCEDURE? The anesthesia used for sedation during the procedure will make you drowsy for several hours following your exam. A friend or family member must drive you home and be present as we review your post-procedure instructions. This process is required by law. Your procedure may be cancelled if a responsible adult is not available to take you home.  \nDISCUSS MEDICATIONS and any health conditions you may have with your doctor. Your doctor will  \nprovide you with instructions for how to appropriately adjust your medications prior to your procedure.  \nl Stop medications for diarrhea (Imodium, Kaopectate) or that contain Iron 7 days prior to your procedure.  \nl You may take your regular morning medications except insulin or other medications for diabetes.  \nLOCATION: Your colonoscopy will take place at the location listed below.  \nAmbulatory Surgery Center  \nSansum Clinic Pueblo Multi-Specialty Clinic 317 W.
