PRE-EXAM FOOD INSTRUCTIONS

• What should I know before taking Klean powders and undergoing colonoscopy?
• Good bowel cleansing is key for high-quality colonoscopy. Inadequate bowel preparation would result in missed precancerous lesions. Therefore, please follow the following instructions for your bowel prep.
• Eat low residue food two days before the exam, including white bread without nuts or seeds, rice porridge, noodles. Do not eat high fiber or protein diet (such as vegetables, fruits, meat, tofu, gluten, milk, and dairy products…etc.). Eat clear liquid diet, such as sports drink, fruit juices without pulp, fruit-flavored beverages, honey, tea, or coffee without milk or cream, one day before undergoing colonoscopy. Dark-colored drinks, such as grapefruit juice, carrot juice, or tomato juice, are prohibited before bowel preparation.
• You can also use a low-residue meal replacement designed for colonoscopy: just consume it the day before the test.

ADMINISTRATION FOR GI Klean

• If you undergo the colonoscopy in the morning, or anesthesia examination, please drink the laxative at 5 a.m. and finish in two hours.

HOW TO FIND OUT IF THE COLON IS CLEANED THOROUGHLY?

• Replenish water to help bowel movement and prevent dehydration. Please drink several times under suggested water amount. Please excrete until the liquid becomes transparent for thorough cleaning. If the liquid is still appears orange-yellow, please continue replenishing water before water deprivation.

PRECAUTIONS

Food with low content of fibrous residue is prohibited. Patients can still take high blood pressure medicine and anticonvulsant but it is suggested not to take hypoglycemic drugs.
• Only very few cases will experience nausea, vomiting or abdominal distension, and anal stimulation, after taking the laxative. These are normal temporary phenomena. You may take a rest until the symptoms are alleviated before continue taking the laxatives. 
• Diarrhea will start in about 30~60 minutes after taking the medicine and will last for about 2~4 hours. The time for excrement could be delayed due to personal condition or habits of constipation. The patient can walk around, massage the abdomen or rinse the anus with lukewarm water for stimulation, in order to speed up bowel movement and ex excrement.
