Conditions

  • Bowel Preparation for Colonoscopy

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Bowel preparation before colonoscopy: Lactulose.

In this randomized, multicenter, single-blind clinical trial, each patient who meets our inclusion criteria will be assigned a randomized code to be included in one of the two study arms, that is, one of the groups and the assigned bowel preparation for the colonoscopy. The benefits and minimal risks of participation will be explained to them, and they will also be asked to sign an informed consent form so that we can proceed with the colonoscopy and collect all the necessary data for our protocol and variable analysis.
