HELP!!
I think Moviprep IS the best option - none of them are pleasant or easy. It's just a case of mind over matter (or crappy taste)! There is nothing in this that makes you vomit - it just tastes disgusting!
If you are looking for some secret, easy option, I think you are going to be disappointed!

i was suppose to start MoviPrep at 6pm for an early am colonoscopy I cannot drink the stuff it makes me vomit....what else could i use?? i did not know this stuff was SO vile. I hate to miss my appointment
At this point since it has been mixed you are just going to have to drink it. Call your doc if you are still having problems.

Please make sure you do something. Getting a regular colonoscopy is SO important. My poor father-in-law passed away last November from colon cancer. He never thought to have one and his doctor didn't recommend it until he was 56. If he had one sooner - around the age of 50 when you're supposed to have them, he would still be with us today.

I suggest asking your doctor what else you can use.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
I had to drink MoviPrep before my last colonoscopy and it really tastes yucky. Not enough that I'd vomit, but it wasn't good. I made sure it was ice cold and drank it with a fat straw. A long slurp followed by a swig of apple juice. Rinse and repeat. I managed to get it all down.
