Reply to "Pouchoscopy enema prep?"

Jan DollarModerator, RN, retired

I always do the Fleet enema thing before my scope. It works within a few minutes. Then I refill the enema bottle with tap water, and rinse until clear. They are only a few ounces, so it does not go very high. Basically, just rinses the pouch.

With a 2 hour drive, plus waiting room time, you probably won't be totally clean no matter what you do. That is because there will be bile coming down in that amount of time. But, if you have not had any solids since the day before, you will be clean enough. They rinse as they go during the procedure anyway.
