Summary

The primary objective of this double-blinded, prospective, randomized placebo-controlled study is to evaluate for change in endoscopic adenoma detection rates (ADR) with the use of peppermint oil solution vs placebo application during colonoscopy. The investigators hypothesize that ADR will be increased with the use of the peppermint oil solution and thus further reduce the risk of colon cancer by means of colonoscopy.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG
