Don’t do the prep and risk being turned away.  \nSUFLAVE-ENSURE COLONOSCOPY Split “PREP”  \nModern colonoscopy is a diagnostic procedure to examine the colon or large intestine. Over the past 40 years, it has become the gold standard in screening for colon polyps and prevention of colorectal cancer. Most exams are quick, painless, and very safe with modern sedation methods and newer, thin, flexible instruments. However, for an accurate and safe exam, your colon must be purged of all waste material using a restricted diet and laxative preparation, or \"prep.” A colonoscopy is an important exam. Read this carefully and take the time to prepare correctly. REMEMBER: An accurate exam requires excellent prep. You must follow all instructions carefully so that the test does not need to be rescheduled. If you have any questions, please call our office – at (412) 262-1000 option \\#2 .  \nWARNING: SUFLAVE and other low-volume concentrated prep solutions areNOTto be used by individuals with severe Chronic Kidney Disease or Kidney Failure. A higher volume, lower concentration prep must be used. If you have kidney failure, please call.  \nMost patients report that the worst part of the procedure is not the colonoscopy but the necessary preparation the day before. Preparing for a colonoscopy is never pleasant. Two of the major problems have been the prep solution's volume and taste. Fortunately, new lower volume “preps”have been developed to make this process as simple as possible. Approved June 2023, SUFLAVE is a new, lower volume, more palatable prep that tastes like a lemon-lime sports drink.  \nTo prepare for your exam, you will need a prescription to purchase:  \n❏ One SUFLAVE Bowel Prep Kit  \n❏ Zofran (odansetrone) 4 mg anti-nausea pills. (optional)  \nAll bowel preps may cause some anal irritation. We also recommend that you purchase:  \n❏ A soft brand of toilet tissue.  \n❏ A box of baby wipes such as Huggies or Pampers Aloe wipes  \n❏ One small tube of diaper rash ointment or Zinc Oxide cream  \n❏ A small bottle of Milk of Magnesia (if you suffer from constipation)❏ [OPTIONAL] Three (3) bottles of ENSURE PLUS or BOOST PLUS nutritional supplement. Any flavor. This is NOT required but seems to make the prep more tolerable.(If DIABETIC, you may prefer ENSURE MAX PROTEIN or BOOST MAX, which have less sugar.)  \nThis new SUFLAVE prep is safe and effective. It is split into TWO portions:  \n1. The first half is taken the night before your exam.  \n2. The second half must be taken on the morning of your exam STARTING 5 HOURS  \nBEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT and completed within 1 hour, AND YOU MUST HAVE NOTHING BY MOUTH THOSE LAST FOUR HOURS BEFORE YOUR EXAM  \n– NO FOOD, LIQUIDS INCLUDING WATER, TOBACCO, CANDY, OR EVEN CHEWING GUM.  \nTHREE (3) DAYS BEFORE YOUR COLONOSCOPY  \nMake arrangements for a companion to accompany you to your appointment and drive you home. It is best that this person is someone we can share the examination results with. We require that your driver remain here the entire time, which averages around two hours – otherwise, your appointment may have to be rescheduled.  \nIt is best to eat lightly for a few days before your exam. It makes the cleanout easier and more effective. What goes in – has to come out. Try to avoid overeating to compensate for the upcoming fast. Please avoid Metamucil, vitamins containing iron, raw vegetables, corn, sesame seeds, and foods with skin or small seeds such as tomatoes, kiwi, and cucumbers for a few days before your exam. Discontinue any fiber supplements. (Metamucil, Benefiber, Citrucel, etc.)  \nTWO (2) DAYS BEFORE YOUR COLONOSCOPY  \nNormal activity and diet, but don’t overeat. Also, don’t go into the prep constipated.
