NuLytely Colonoscopy Preparation

The day before the procedure:

1. In the morning, prepare your Cherry Flavor NuLYTELY solution
   according to the instructions on the package and refrigerate.
2. Drink only clear liquids for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Solid
   foods, milk or milk products are not allowed.

Clear liquids include:

• Stained fruit juices without pulp
  (apple, white grape, lemonade)
• Water
• Clear broth or bouillon
• Coffee or tea (without milk or non-dairy creamer)
  
  

All of the following that are not colored red or purple:

• Gatorade
• Carbonated and non-carbonated soft drinks
• Kool-aid (or other fruit flavored drinks)
• Plain Jell-O (without added fruits or toppings)
• Ice Popsicle
  
  
  

3. At 6 PM., begin drinking Cherry Flavor NuLYTELY as instructed - 8 oz
   every 10-15 minutes until the bottle is empty. (For most patients rapidly
   drinking a glassful is better than sipping an ounce or two at a time.) You
   will have consumed several glassfuls before having the first loose, watery
   bowel movement. Initially, you may feel slightly bloated, but will become
   more comfortable as you continue to have bowel movements. It will take
   approximately 3 hours to finish the solution. Diarrhea will continue for
   at least 1 hour after you finish drinking the solution.

The day of the procedure:

1. Do not eat anything until after your examination. No Liquids after midnight.
2. You must be accompanied by a friend or relative to drive and/or assist you home.
3. You may take your usual medications unless instructed otherwise.
   However, DO NOT TAKE ANY ASPIRIN, ASPIRIN CONTAINING
   PRODUCTS, ARTHRITIS MEDICATION OR VITAMIN E ONE WEEK
   PRIOR TO THIS PROCEDURE. (i.e., Ibuprofen, Motrin, Indocin, Ginkgo,
   Voltaren, Naprosyn, Anaprox.) Please inform the doctor immediately if
   you are taking any of these medications.
