Study Summary

Subjects undergoing an elective complete colonoscopy will randomly receive either PicoPrep: 2-sachets for oral solution in two divided doses given a night before (first dose - sachet) and approximately 5 hours prior to procedure (second dose - sachet) or HalfLytely: for oral solution and two 5 mg Bisacodyl tablets, given the day before the procedure to evaluate its effectiveness, tolerability and safety.

Primary Outcome

Overall colon cleansing was assessed by a blinded gastroenterologist during the colonoscopy using the Aronchick scale. The Aronchick scale is a 4-step rating scale: inadequate, fair, good, and excellent. Excellent is defined as \>90% of mucosa seen, mostly liquid stool, minimal suctioning needed for adequate visualization. Good is defined as \>90% of mucosa seen, mostly liquid stool, significant suctioning needed for adequate visualization.
