Summary

This study is a randomized, controlled, single centre, endoscopist-blinded non-inferiority trial. The purpose of our study is to determine if using a 2-litre mixture in combination with vitamin C is better than using 2 litres of mixture with bisacodyl tablets. Two-litre PegLyte based preparations with an added laxative agent are commonly used for colonoscopies in outpatient settings. If the investigators discover that a 2-litre mixture with either the tablets or the ascorbic acid work better, future patients undergoing colonoscopy will be able to experience fewer side effects and be less troubled by the preparation while still allowing a good view of the colon.
